Let’s have some fun this weekend, Missouri! Sure, summer might boast plenty of festivals – with thrill rides, games, and cotton candy – but that doesn’t mean we can’t have a ton of fun in the winter, too. In fact, this ice carnival in Missouri promises plenty of excitement and a full menu of outdoor activities. Make sure you mark your calendar, however, because the annual carnival kicks off this weekend.

Bundle up the whole family for a weekend of fun at the Loop Ice Carnival, held at Delmar Loop in St. Louis on January 19-20, 2019.
