Visit Lake Geneva and the City of Lake Geneva are proud to present the 29th Annual Winterfest, featuring the U.S. National Snow Sculpting Championship January 31 - February 4, 2024. As the only national snow sculpting championship in the United States, Winterfest welcomes the most talented and award-winning sculpting teams from across the country. Be here to witness 15 state-champion teams at work during an epic 3-day competition where their artistry is put to the test in creating remarkable, larger-than-life snow sculptures.

The snow sculpting competition begins at 11am Wednesday and continues through 1pm Saturday at Riviera Plaza and Flat Iron Park along the beautiful shore of Geneva Lake. It's Free to attend and view, and sculptures will remain on display through Sunday (and until they melt).

Also enjoy an array of more wintery fun throughout the Lake Geneva region during Winterfest. Don't miss the Downtown Ice Sculpture Walk, bonfires on the beach, live entertainment, and much more for the whole family.
