Here on the night from December 31 to December 1 there will be mass festivities with a show, fireworks and an ice exhibition. In the historical part of the city they start preparing for the holiday as early as December 20 and gradually ice figures, castles and fairy-tale characters begin to appear on Poklonnaya Hill. You can see them yourself and even take a few photos as a keepsake.
Ice Sculptures 2025
On New Year's Eve 2025, an ice sculpture competition is to be held on Poklonnaya Gora. You can see them on the main alley. "Ice Moscow" is a winter event that attracts Muscovites and tourists who want to get bright New Year's photos. The figures are so beautiful that you immediately find yourself in a real-life winter fairy tale.
You can visit the event in Victory Park, which occupies 2 square kilometers in the center of the capital. On Poklonnaya Hill, right on the eve of the holiday, an ice city appears, which is decorated with various ice figures. Ice for the figures is brought from the Arkhangelsk lakes, Baikal. Last year, there were more than 100 ice figures in the park.
Each sculpture has individual neon lighting that shimmers in different shades.
You can not only take a few winter photos, but also ride the ice slides, which are 14-100 m long. This entertainment will appeal to the little guests of the ice town in the center of Moscow. Adults can also take part in the entertainment and remember their childhood by riding the ice slide.
