About Ice Castles LLC
Ice Castles is a Utah-based company, led by ice artist Brent Christensen, that creates acre-sized, all-ice castles at venues across the United States.
"Magical....twinkling and sense-defying and straight out of fairy tales...of all the gorgeous pictures on the internet of incredible structures made of ice (and to be sure there are many!), I'm most moved by Brent Christensen's Silverthorne Ice Castle, a cavernous, surreal-looking place that looks as if it were constructed by an army of icy elves, or else appeared on its own in an enchanted forest." -Oprah.com
