Events Description
During the competition, wander amongst the emerging sculptures watching the magic in action, ask questions of the carvers, and vote for your favourite. Following competition marvel at the finished ice masterpieces, try some carving yourself and watch a new element take form in a sculpture…snow!
This year’s ice sculptures celebrate the incredible athleticism found in nature, inspired by the upcoming Winter Olympics in Milano Cortina. Each sculpture brings Banff National Park’s wildlife and landscapes to life, showcasing their strength, agility, and resilience in creative ways.
Come explore these stunning works of art and see how nature’s own athletes take center stage in a winter wonderland!
