Bridlington Ice Trail: Christmas on the Coast
Bridlington is set to sparkle this November, as the town hosts a brand new Christmas event – the Bridlington Ice Trail. Themed 'Christmas on the Coast,' a series of stunning ice sculptures will form a magical trail through the heart of the seaside town. Pick up an ice trail map and have fun exploring Bridlington with your family and friends. Along the way, you'll discover interactive displays and live ice carving, where blocks of ice are transformed into glistening coastal Christmas masterpieces right before your eyes. The ice trail will guide you on a festive journey, with sculptures depicting traditional Christmas scenes and maritime wonders, all reflecting Bridlington's rich coastal heritage. As night falls, the ice sculptures will come alive with a dazzling display of lights.
The Bridlington Ice Trail promises to be a highlight of East Yorkshire's Christmas events season so wrap up warm and explore the wonders of 'Christmas on the Coast'. Should you need a helping hand on your icy quest, our friendly team at the Bridlington Tourist Information Centre will be there to guide you every step of the way.
