CISS - Chinatown Ice Sculpture Showcase

Wednesday 2020 January 22 through February 8th

In 2018, the Chinatown Business Improvement Area had a dream, to lighting up Chinatown on Chinese Lunar New Year with Ice; sculptures and carvings.

For the 2019 Year of the Pig, Chinatown and Calgary experience 12 unique carvings in James Short Park under minus 25 degrees for over 3 weeks.

​

For 2020 Year of the Rat, the Chinatown BIA plans to bring the carvings into Chinatown and on the streets to celebrate what this community is all about; THE SMILE OF ITS PEOPLE – young and old, customers and staff, property owners and business operators, community and associations, visitors and tourist.

​

Chinatown invites you to be a part of the light, the ice, and THE SMILE. Below is a map of the CISS Ice Sculpture locations.  Click the map for a downloadable PDF file. Enjoy.
