THE LARGEST MAZE EVER!

THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT THE MINNESOTA ICE FESTIVAL

Don't worry if it's a chilly day. There are plenty of warming houses around where you can come inside and enjoy a warm beverage, or if you prefer, there are outdoor firepits stationed through the festival grounds for you to warm up.

There are also warm, heated bathrooms on-site. Thank you for that!

You CAN use your camera, or camera on your phone, but no videos can be taken, and wi-fi is not available.

STROLLERS WAGONS AND SLEDS

If you want to bring the little ones with you, of course they are welcome! Strollers, wagons, and sleds (how fun!) are all welcome at this event. However; if you plan on going in the maze, The Minnesota Ice Festival is asking you to only use strollers or wagons if absolutely necessary.

THIS MIGHT BE TRICKY

What about being wheelchair friendly? Well...this is tricky. They want to make sure everyone knows they are welcome to come, but want you to be aware of the conditions. The ice maze is built on a field covered in snow and gravel and doesn't make the best type of terrain for wheelchairs. It's hard for them to keep gravel surfaces smooth as foot traffic creates ruts and possibly slippery conditions. So if you are someone that feels a bit uncomfortable or unsteady on your feet, or utilizes wheelchairs; know that you won't be turned away, but they don't want you to be disappointed. You should consider the conditions before deciding on purchasing a ticket.
