Ice Sculpting on location

Group Outing at Your Office or a Fun Location of Your Choice?

Then Ice Sculpting on-site is the perfect event for you. We’ll come to your location with beautiful crystal-clear blocks of ice. Creating artworks from ice with the right tools, combined with a healthy dose of fun and team-building, makes ice carving an incredible experience for everyone.

The Workshop: We deliver the ice blocks and set them neatly on tables, along with the necessary tools. In this ice-cold workshop, you’ll work in pairs or groups of three on a stunning glass-clear block of ice. The instructor will help you choose a fun and fitting theme and guide you through creating a rough sketch. We’ll teach you the techniques and provide all the tools, including chisels, hammers, ice scrapers, etc.

You’ll start by carving the broad strokes, removing the first pieces of ice. But take care—once the ice is gone, it can’t be put back! Then, it’s time to work more finely, and slowly but surely, the desired shape will emerge. Want some music, a drink, and a bitterballen snack in between? Why not!

Extra Team-Building: Work together with the other carvers and combine your creations into one cohesive masterpiece.

The Presentation and Award Ceremony: Who will create the most beautiful artwork with the most original story to match? That combination is worth gold. At the end of the workshop, the ice sculptures will be presented by the participants themselves. Each pair stands behind their block of ice and makes their story as convincing as possible. Judging for originality and teamwork can be done by a jury or by the teams themselves. And of course, a fun award ceremony with winter-themed prizes is a must.

Tip! Start your program with a welcome drink served in an ice glass, or finish off with a fun Pub Quiz.
