Ice sculptures make their dazzling return to First Night Boston and celebrate the upcoming historic events and milestones happening in 2026! From Sail Boston to Massachusetts 250, millions of visitors will experience the beauty and history of Boston.
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. Check out the below map to see where the sculptures will be set up.
