An enchanting world of ice and wonder is set to return to Utah this winter. Ice Castles at Soldier Hollow Nordic Center will feature a new design with plenty of fairytale experiences.

The winter attraction features tunnels, caverns, towers, fountains, and slides, built entirely from ice. The
acre-sized winter playground is illuminated at night by color-changing LED lights embedded inside the ice.
The frozen attraction also offers horse-drawn sleigh rides, and new this winter, guests will have the
chance to see a nightly fire show atop the icy towers after sunset.
“We are excited to return to Utah where the magic started years ago to create an enchanting experience
for our guests,” said Ice Castles' CEO Kyle Standifird. “Our team is eager to craft something truly unique
in Midway, along with a clash of fire and ice as flames dance amidst the Ice Castles backdrop.”

Ice Castles construction will begin in late October where a team of approximately 20 ice artisans will spend several weeks building the experience using icicles that they grow, harvest, and hand-place one-by-one. Ice Castles typically opens in late December or early January, depending on the weather, and remains open typically to middle or late February, weather permitting.

The Utah-based company will have a total of 5 locations this year with other locations in Minnesota, New
Hampshire, Eagle, Colorado, and Cripple Creek, Colorado. Peak season tickets to visit the frozen
fortresses will be available on November 26, 2024, and can be purchased on the attraction’s website,
