Unsurprisingly winter is always a busy time for us and this year is no exception!

We’ve got a busy few months ahead which will see the Glacial team travelling all across the UK, creating spectacular ice sculptures at live demonstrations, in addition to delivering dozens of pre-sculpted pieces to festive ice trails. The best thing about these events is that (nearly) all of these events are absolutely free to attend!

Take a look at our schedule for winter 2019-2020 and see if you can stop by to say hello!
