It also hosted a few events during the Winter Olympics in 2010. Every year, Whistler is visited by millions of tourists, mostly families looking to celebrate a perfect Christmas and New Year.

A large part of the ‘Chateau Christmas’ was filmed at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler, which is a luxury resort located at 4599 Chateau Boulevard. During filming, standard safety protocols were followed regarding health in light of the global pandemic. Most of the actors in the film are Canadian and finished a two-week quarantine before they started shooting.
