For anyone who thinks après-ski is the best part of skiing, this is for you:
From 10 November-mid January 2017, Vauxhall will become a mini version of the Alps — with a collection of 'ski lodges' that will dish out gallons of cockle-warming booze.
The cocktail menu at Vauxhall Winter Village includes winter classics like eggnog and mulled beverages... or treat yourself to a bottle of festive fizz.
Other attractions include: the chance to don retro ski wear and have your picture snapped in a cable car photo booth; a bar broadcasting the latest winter sports/ice hockey events; a festive bandstand, a pop up fondue lodge(!) and various other street food stalls.
Alpine cabin booths are available to book too, if you fancy getting cosy with a group, like this:

Vauxhall Winter Village is around from 10 November-mid January.
