elect dates December 2023 through March 2024: Ice Castles is an award-winning frozen attraction located in five cities across North America using hundreds of thousands of icicles hand-placed by professional ice artists. The castles include breathtaking LED-lit sculptures, frozen thrones, ice-carved tunnels, slides, fountains and much more. Each castle is approximately an acre in size and consists of more than 25 million pounds of ice.

Did you know…?
This one-of-a-kind attraction takes a team of 20 to 40 ice artisans approximately eight weeks to construct, with the team harvesting and placing between 5,000 and 12,000 icicles. The various features are then drenched with water and repeated, until the ice reaches heights of about 15 to 30 feet. LED lights embedded inside the ice illuminate the attraction at night.
