Winterfest 2025 & US National Snow Sculpting Competition

Experience Lake Geneva’s annual Winterfest featuring the U.S. National Snow Sculpting Championship, and you’ll never look at snow the same way again! It’s impossible to not be wowed by the workmanship and artistry on display as snow sculpting teams from across the country transform the lakefront with 9-foot-tall sculptures made of snow. 

VISIT Lake Geneva and the City of Lake Geneva are proud to present the 30th Annual Winterfest, January 29 through February 2, 2025. Lake Geneva Winterfest is home to America's Snow Sculpting Invitational and to mark this special anniversary, we'll welcome back past champions from across the country for an epic competition of skill and artistry.

Fifteen sculpting teams will begin their work on Wednesday, January 29 at Riviera Plaza and Flat Iron Park along the beautiful shore of Geneva Lake and finish on Saturday, February 1. Lake Geneva Winterfest is FREE to attend and view, and sculptures will remain on display through Sunday (or until they melt).
