Several years ago now, Canary Wharf used to host an ice sculpting festival during the month of January, and this was replaced by their Winter Lights event. This November, ice sculptures have returned to Canary Wharf. The event, known as Winter Ice, was held from Thursday to this Saturday from noon until 7:00pm. There are fifteen ice sculptures of animals to see around Jubilee Park at Canary Wharf. I visited them on Friday evening.
Throughout the day, visitors can watch the ice sculptors at work and can also participate in interactive workshops to create a polar bear out of ice. These events are held around Canary Wharf in different locations, but the ice trail is only available to view in Jubilee Park. The fifteen sculptures around the park showcase an animal, insect, bird, or creature that is endangered.
In addition to the ice sculpture events, the ice rink at Canary Wharf has also opened, and the event hopes to attract visitors to the area. To visit the ice sculptures and to participate in the events, today is the last day to do so.
