The 1-acre walk-through ice-and-light show is expected to open to the public in late December.Freezing temperatures are usually an obstacle for construction — but not for the artisans building the Ice Castles installation in Midway.
“Mother Nature has been our friend this month,” said Ryan Davis, CEO of Ice Castles, the company behind the annual 1-acre walk-through ice-and-light display.
Below-freezing temperatures at night this week have made the ice-making easier, the company said in a statement.
