Gaylord National Harbor is excited to bring back its signature ICE! event featuring Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer, for the 2023 holiday season! Part of the resort’s “So. Much. Christmas.” grand celebration, see ICE! November 19-December 31, 2023.

Unfamiliar with this holiday-themed event? ICE! features 2 million pounds of hand-carved ice that comes alive in vivid, story-driven holiday displays inspired by popular Christmas classics. Gaylord National provides blue parkas so visitors can walk through this unique seasonal display, which is preserved at a chilly 9°F!

This immersive opportunity is made possible by master artisans who hail from Harbin, China — more than 7,000 miles away! Over the course of several weeks, they hand carve two million pounds of ice, some vibrantly dyed, transforming it into beloved and iconic holiday characters and scenes.
