What is an ice sculpture or ice luge?

An ice sculpture is a carved centrepiece made from clear ice: a logo, an initial, an animal, a swan or a design built around your theme. Lit from below, it catches the light and becomes a natural focal point on a buffet, bar or entrance table.

An ice luge is a sculpture with a channel carved through it. Drinks are poured in at the top and run down through the ice to chill on the way into the glass. Luges suit drinks receptions, Christmas parties, winter themes and brand launches.

Tips from our team

1
Plan for melting
Ice melts slowly in a warm room. A drip tray and a cooler spot away from heaters keep it looking good for longer.
2
Light it from below
An LED base lights the ice beautifully. Some bases need a power point nearby.
3
Check delivery access
Sculptures are heavy and delivered on the day. Tell us about loading, lifts and stairs.

Frequently asked questions

Which venues near Cheltenham can host a large event?

On our list, Cheltenham Racecourse (up to 700 guests) and Sudeley Castle (up to 450 guests) can take 400 or more guests. Tell us your venue and numbers and we will plan ice sculptures and ice luges around the space.

Do venues around Cheltenham have rules for performers?

Many hotels and country houses have rules on ceiling rigging, fire, access times and changing space. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we will check everything before we confirm.

How much do ice sculptures and ice luges cost in Cheltenham?

There is no fixed price. Every event is different. Prices depend on the acts, the number of performers, timings, travel and location, so we quote each booking individually. Travel is part of the quote, and Cheltenham is 89 miles west of central London. Send us your date and venue for free, no-obligation options.

Which postcodes around Cheltenham do you cover?

All of GL50, GL51, GL52 and GL53, including Shurdington, Bishop's Cleeve, Prestbury, Woodmancote and Gotherington, plus the rest of Gloucestershire and nearby Gloucester, Tewkesbury, Forest of Dean and Winchcombe.

How long does an ice sculpture last?

It depends on the room temperature and size. In a typical indoor room a sculpture lasts through an evening, slowly changing as it melts.

Can you carve our logo?

Yes. Send us your logo and we will confirm what can be carved for your date.

Who pours the drinks through the luge?

Usually the venue's bar team or a bartender we provide. We agree this with your venue.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can. Friday and Saturday dates in December and the summer months go first, often months ahead. Short notice is sometimes possible, so it is always worth asking.

Can the performers match our theme or brand colours?

Usually, yes. Tell us your theme, colours or brand guidelines and we will suggest the costumes and acts that fit best.

Do you work with our venue and event team?

Yes. We agree access, changing space, timings and any venue rules before the day, and work to your run of show.
