Ice carving talent
Giving you the chance to see the ice sculptors creating work live on the site, the Ice Sculpting Festival London event promises plenty of fast paced action and creative talent in abundance. Teams of international sculptors will be working against the clock and against each other to create the best work of art from 2m x 2m blocks of ice.

Competitive spirit
Art fans can cheer on the UK team as they go head to head against teams from around the world to create eye catching ice sculptures. Competitors in the Ice Sculpting Festival London contest will use chainsaws, chipping tools and delicate chisels to create the ice sculptures at Canary Wharf, with the winning entry being announced on Saturday.

Snow pit
As well as being able to watch all the ice sculptures take shape, members of the public get hands on at the snow pit, which can be found at Montgomery Square during the Ice Sculpting Festival. London visitors can make snowmen or snowcastles out of real snow in the pit, and then warm up with hot winter food and drinks from the nearby Frost Fayre.

Festival theme
Last years theme was winter sports, so the ice sculptors took their inspiration from snowboarding and skiing. This year, as the festival is back for an even bigger event, expect to see even more in the way of original and innovative creations.
