The 6th Annual Ice Festival in Central Park

On the weekend before Valentine’s Day, celebrate your love of Central Park’s sculptures at the Central Park Conservancy's sixth annual Ice Festival. See ice-carving artists from Okamoto Studio use electric chain saws, chisels, and picks to transform more than 6,000 pounds of ice into a glistening replica of one of the Park’s most beloved statues.

As night falls, revel among colorful lights as the Mall becomes a vibrant silent disco with live DJs, all to celebrate Central Park Conservancy's preservation efforts.
