Who will be sculpting this year?
This year we have 15 teams from ten countries. Within the United States we have teams from Alaska, Breckenridge/Colorado, Loveland/Colorado, Wisconsin and Vermont.

Where are the sculptures located?
The Snow Sculptures are located in the area around the Riverwalk Center at 150 West Adams Avenue, Breckenridge, CO 80424. The competition sculptures are in the Riverwalk Center (Tiger Dredge) parking lot and the sponsor/exhibition sculptures are spread onto the "lawn" just north of the Riverwalk Center and across the river in the Blue River Plaza adjacent to Main Street. Event Headquarters are in the Riverwalk Center.

A Permanent Memento
Be sure to stop by Events Headquarters for postcards, pins and more. <!--The Snow Sculpture Headquarters merchandise sales and history room will be closed on Saturday, January 28 and on Sunday, January 29. Event memorabilia and information will be available at the Welcome Center located in the Blue River Plaza.-->

History on Display
Discover the process of snow sculpting, information about the teams and lots of interesting trivia. Located at Headquarters, this exhibit explores the last 20 years of the Budweiser International Snow Sculpture Championships.

The Magic of Ice
