Ice sculptures make their dazzling return to First Night Boston and celebrate the 250th Anniversary of Massachusetts, which was established in 1775! Historical moments that helped propel the Commonwealth and the country to its independence will be captured in ice. Back again this year will be the iconic “BOSTON” sign, that has flags of the world arranged in a familiar triangular pattern.
Sculptures will be located in City Hall Plaza and available for public viewing from noon on December 31 to 12:30 AM on January 1. Weather permitting, viewing of some of First Night’s ice sculptures will continue into New Year’s Day.
Ice sculpture completion time is always weather-dependent, so don’t be surprised if you see our ice carvers making some final touches in the first part of New Year’s Eve.
Also, we’re excited to again be teamed up with Boston Harbor Now for their annual Ice Sculpture Stroll as a part of First Night Boston.
