Chestnut Hill is transformed into a winter wonderland during this two-day festival which boasts unique ice-themed attractions and cozy comforts that showcase the beauty of its historic business district in the winter. Join world-renowned ice sculptor Peter Slavin and Philadelphia's own Ice Sculpture Philly team Friday Night and Saturday Afternoon in Chestnut Hill for a revamped Valentine's on Ice celebration.

Friday Night & Saturday Afternoon

  • Get inspired for winter "glamping" as you check out a Yurt Village containing tents fitted out with chic furnishings provided by Chestnut Hill's premier home design retailers.
  • Chestnut Hill Brewing Company invites you to enjoy ice-cold locally-brewed beers and wines at their outdoor Ice Bar, carved entirely out of blocks of ice. Nearby attractions include a fire pit and Chestnut Hill's famous Market At The Fareway vendors. 
  • Warm up with chili specials from participating restaurants and take advantage of the shopping weekend before Valentine's Day with retail promotions at participating shops.
  • Masterfully-crafted ice sculptures will be displayed along Germantown Avenue throughout the event. Live ice carving shows by Slavin and team will also take place at Laurel Hill Gardens, Friday 6:30pm-7:30pm and Saturday 12pm-3pm. Ice Sculpture Philly is the world's first performance ice sculpting company, combining action adventure, slapstick, drama, and audience participation to create an unforgettable experience.
