What To Expect At The Funky Ice Fest In The Adirondacks

Break out the bell-bottoms and bundle up, because Funky Ice Fest is back in the Adirondacks, and this year it is going full disco.

The winter party is celebrating its 10th anniversary with “Studio 33,” a playful nod to the legendary Studio 54 and the Pub’s address at 33 Canada Street. The celebration takes over Adirondack Pub and Brewery January 23rd and 24th, and February 6th and 7th, turning cold winter nights into a full-on groove session.

Admission and parking are free. The Pub will be open from 11:30 a.m. to 9 p.m., and the outdoor ice bar and dance party run from 4 pm to 9 pm each day.

Music is taking center stage this year, with outdoor DJs spinning disco classics, a winter dance floor, and plenty of photo-worthy moments amid detailed ice sculptures carved by the Adirondack Carvers Co-op in Queensbury.

Since 2016, Funky Ice Fest has been all about reinventing winter fun. No two years are ever the same. Guests can enjoy handcrafted cocktails, locally brewed Adirondack Brewery beer, and non alcoholic options for anyone doing Dry January, all while dancing under the disco ball and the winter moon.

The cocktail menu features award-winning spirits from High Peaks Distilling next door. Dress warm, as temperatures may dip into the single digits. There will be heaters, fireplaces, radiant patio heat, and a cozy, warm Pub inside.

Disco outfits are encouraged. Funk is not optional.
