The past ice sculpture themes have included beautiful works like Under the Sea, Story Time, Mountain Wonderland and even a Mythological Wonderland.
For their 13th year this coming February 8-16, 2020, the theme for the Cripple Creek Ice Fest is expected to be announced soon. Those who are planning to attend by the two event weekends shouldn’t forget to drop by the main tent where they can cast their vote for their favorite ice sculpture.
