355 N. Pine Street, Burlington, WI, 53105, United States
The Burlington Ice Festival offers art, fun, and plenty of ice Saturday, December 8th, 2018! Admire at least 15 ice sculptures carved on-site before your very eyes.
Each sculpture is carved from a 300-pound block of ice that has been frozen in a special process to ensure that the blocks are crystal clear. Live sculpture carving, a favorite viewing attraction, showcases ice carvers using hand tools transforming massive blocks of ice into an array of giant masterpieces. Ice carving begins around 10am Saturday, with judging for prizes around 4:30pm. That gives you much of the day to watch them construct these masterpieces, and you can continue to admire them until – well – Mother Nature says you can’t! When you’re not viewing the artists in action, take a ride in a horse-drawn wagon, see a reindeer, or visit Santa Claus! There’s no cost to attend.
While in Burlington, check out the Spinning Top & Yo-Yo Museum, the Burlington Farmers’ Market, the Burlington Historical Museum, the Malt House Theatre & the Haylofters, the Chocolate Experience Museum, or grab a burger at the legendary Fred’s, right on the downtown corner.
