This year's festival is due to take place on Saturday December 10th and Sunday December 11th.
 
The ice sculptures are the main attraction of the event, which has been held in York since 2000.
 
Illuminated by the city's Christmas lights, these elaborate creations are positioned throughout the network of cobbled streets that make up the Minster Quarter.
 
People who attend the event on the Sunday will also have a chance to witness the parade of angels, which will be led by the beautiful golden angel.
