Ice Castles is returning to North Woodstock, N.H.
Tickets went on sale in late November.
The gigantic frozen Ice Castles will return to North Woodstock, N.H. this winter, complete with slides, tunnels, thrones, and caverns.
This week, ice artisans will begin harvesting and placing up to 10,000 icicles a day to build the 20-foot-tall, 20-million pound attraction. The artists create the castles by fusing the icicles together and spraying them with water, and add color-changing LED lights that light up the night during the attraction’s evening hours.
“This breathtaking winter experience will attract thousands of visitors throughout the season,” wrote the company in a press release.
Visitors can also check out a tubing hill, sleigh rides through an illuminated wooded trail, a Magic Forest Light Walk, Winter Fairy Village, and more. An ice bar called the Polar Pub will serve guests winter-themed alcoholic beverages.

Ice Castles is slated to open in January, depending on weather conditions.
According to the company, advanced ticket dates are the dates the attraction is expected to be open based on historical experience in New Hampshire. However, the attraction could open sooner or stay open later, and additional dates will be added during construction of the site.
Tickets go on sale Nov. 26 on icecastles.com. The cost is $31 for ages 12 and up and $23 for ages 4-11 for peak times, and $20 for ages 12 and up and $15 for ages 4-11 for off-peak times.
