The Largest Ice Bar In New York Will Make You Stop And Look Twice

Recently we shared with our readers that up in the Adirondack Mountains, you can find an 18,000-pound ice bar waiting for you at The Sagamore this winter. Well, if you're unable to make it up this far north or have already crossed that particular ice bar off of your bucket list then have no fear! There's actually another epic ice bar in our state that's hidden away in the Finger Lakes, giving another area of our state the chance to enjoy this exciting winter wonder.

Nestled along the southern shores of Seneca Lake, the Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel is one of only three harbor hotels in our entire state and has an exciting event for you to look forward to this winter.

Happening from January 31st through February 2nd, the hotel is once again bringing back its famous annual ice bar.

The ice bar event is the largest in our state, with over 25,000-pounds of magical ice creations waiting for you along the lakefront outside.

Each year you'll find different works of ice that come together at this cool event.

With repeat attractions like their highly sought after martini ice luges.

It's always exciting to see which ice sculptures come to life at this event, we've even see magical dragons here!

And of course, there are plenty of fun photo opportunities that you and your friends and family will enjoy.

After you get your fill outside, you can choose to warm up inside the hotel's Harbor Ballroom.

Inside the fun continues with more ice sculptures, music, dancing, along with complimentary beer, wine, and food tastings from local restaurants.

Mark your calendars, this is one ice bar you'll want to see for yourself before it melts away for the season.

Unsurprisingly, this event is one that tends to sell out quite quickly! If you're interested in seeing the Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel for yourself this year and want to buy tickets, click here.
