York Ice Trail 2026: An Enchanted City

Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th February

This February, York’s city centre will be transformed into An Enchanted City, where a mysterious spell has taken hold…

Wander through the historic streets and discover dazzling ice sculptures inspired by magic, mystery, and the weird and wonderful. Each corner reveals something new – from curious creatures to mythical marvels – in a trail bursting with enchantment. But beware… who cast the spell, and why? Follow the trail with the whole family to uncover the truth, before the magic melts away.

For the first time we will be hosting a sculpture in our garden based on a mythical beast that if you look closely you will see on our Coat of Arms! More details to follow!
