Durham Fire & Ice festival

Hi Everyone, 

The wonderful Fire & Ice trail returns to Durham this February half term on Friday 21 and Saturday 22 February 2020 with a brand new theme of Travelling Through Time, this a FREE event for the whole family to enjoy. 

All the sculptures are inspired by travel, time and time travel.  There will be sculputers ranging from Stephenson's Rocket to sculptures inspired by some time travelling fictional classics. 

The trail will lead you round the city of Durham so you will really be able to explore the delights of the city. Along route there will be demonstrations and hand on activities for the whole family to enjoy as well as some performances. 

We took part in last year's trail and had a wonderful day. We took advantage of the Durham Park and Ride service as parking can be hard in the city. The trail took us a few hours to complete as there is lots to do and see on route besides the actual sculptures. We also stopped off for fish and chips at Bells by the market place (they had a fantastic gluten free menu) and finished the day taking in the fire performance. We have included some photos from last year for you to enjoy.
