From Kingsland Ave to Laurel StreetIt’s January. It’s winter. It’s cold. But January is no match for The Delmar Loop. The Loop is one of St. Louis’ truly great neighborhoods, and The Loop knows how to celebrate. So come salute Old Man Winter at the annual Delmar Loop Ice Carnival!
The 2019 Ice Carnival is packed with new twists and old favorites. Bring the kids during the day, and then get a sitter because you’ll want to stick around when the sun goes down.
The Carnival kicks off on Friday night with the legendary Snow Ball atop the Moonrise Hotel. This one-of-a-kind party features ice carvings, arctic-inspired cocktails, fashion, and music, and of course the Redbull Roof Top Skate Park—St. Louis’ only roof top skate park, courtesy of Skate Church. Entry to the Snow Ball is just $5, or you can donate a canned good and come on up!
The Ice Carnival hits its full stride Saturday and Sunday from 11:00am to 5:00pm throughout The Loop, with cool things to do for the whole family. Breathtaking ice sculptures will adorn The Loop, keeping watch over activities that offer something for everyone. Join us to celebrate winter at The 2019 Delmar Loop Ice Carnival!

Ice Carnival After Dark: (Saturday, January 19 ONLY) 
When the sun goes down, the Ice Carnival heats up. With so many adult revelers continuing the party after the sun goes down, for 2019 we’ve decided to light the night with ice!  Thirty of the stunning ice sculptures throughout The Delmar Loop will be bathed in dramatic, brilliant light—we’re pretty sure this is why the selfie was invented! Lights go up at 4:00 pm and shine until 10:00 pm on Saturday night.
