Around fifty people gathered on Saturday afternoon at Alpe d'Huez, protesting against the holding of Tomorrowland winter. The festival, which sets up ten stages in the village and on the slopes, has been the subject of strong criticism from association for environmental protection and residents' groups.

“We’re not doing anything wrong. We just come to have fun, meet new people,” said a group of young Swedes who came to Tomorrowland Winter for the first time and observed the procession from afar.
