About Us

Your ticket to all day fun and adventure is $10 for 13 years old and up, $5 for 6-12 years old and free for kids 5 and under. Save the lines up and pre purchase your tickets through our online portal.  Passes can also be purchased ahead of time localy or at the entrance of the event. 

Admission is required to enjoy the festival, including rides down the tube run. This admission allows you to enjoy almost all of the activities, shows, and to walk through the festival area.  

Some activities and vendors do charge an additional fee. These 'extra fee' activities are all marked on the event program to avoid any surprises. 

Yes, a ticket must be purchased  in order for you to walk throughout the festival  area. The purchase of the ticket helps support the event and ensure that we can continue it. All proceeds of the festival go back into our Downtown and events that we run. 

The Downtown Tube run is very popular  and because of this we will be closing the line up area at 5pm to ensure everyone has a chance to ride that lines up. 

Generally speaking, the busiest time for the festival is from 11:00 pm - 2:00 pm. We encourage visitors who do not like crowds to visit earlier, starting at 9:00 am or later, after 2:00 pm. 

The event will run from 9:00 am - 6:00 pm, leaving you lots of time to enjoy all that Fire and Ice has to offer. 

We would recommend that man's best friend stays home the day of the festival as it can be very crowded at the event. However, if you must bring them they are welcome. Please have them leashed and remember to pick up any of their waste. 

Dogs will not be able to ride the shuttle bus unless they are a registered service animal.

Service animals are allowed within interior spaces with proof of service animal registration.  

This activity is weather dependent. The skating trail is expected to be open mid-January until mid-March. Visitors are encouraged to bring your skates for the festival.  Public Skating will be available between 12:30pm - 2:40pm the day of the festival if the outdoor rink is not ready. 

We do our best to make the festival as accessible as possible for our attendees. We encourage those that require accessible parking to use the Bird Mill Mews Parking Lot, and to arrive early as these spots fill quickly. A convenient drop off space at the corner of Manitoba St and Taylor Rd will be available.  

Downtown Bracebridge offers over 500 spaces in 6 parking lots that are within walking distance to the festival. These spaces fill early and you may expect longer wait times to find a spot within the downtown core. 

To make it easier to enjoy Fire and Ice, we are now offering free shuttle service from several convenient parking lots within Bracebridge. Park and take the free shuttle to the festival. Shuttle buses will run continuously from 9:00 am - 6:30pm. Please visit our 'Getting Here' page for additional parking and shuttle information. 

**Safety is our number one concern. Please ensure you are parking in designated areas and that you adhere to the no parking signs in and around the festival. This ensures our police, fire and ambulance can move around the town.**
