Now in its second year, the annual London Ice Sculpting Festival moves from the West End to its new home next to the ice rink in Canary Wharf. Over two days Canada Square Park will become the focus of the UK’s unique, international ice sculpting competition where teams of acclaimed sculptors from around the globe will carve large blocks of ice into stunning works of art against the clock – the theme for this year is ‘Cool Trading’.

Simply marvel at their skills or revel in the chance to let your own artistic side reveal itself by booking a supervised Master Class where you can “have-a-go” at sculpting small blocks of ice yourself. Master Classes are free and available on a first come, first served basis.

A panel of judges will declare the winner of the 2010 London Ice Sculpting Festival at 3pm on the Saturday. Come and see if you agree with their choice!
