Media was aglow with icy brilliance on January 25-26 for the third annual Ice On State, hosted by the Media Business Authority and presented by Visit Delco. The event drew over 6,000 visitors to enjoy dozens of stunning ice sculptures, music, and live ice carvings.
Artists from Ice Sculpture Philly amazed spectators by crafting intricate sculptures, sponsored by local businesses. Interactive sculptures included Ice Cornhole game, an Ice Sliding Board, and an Ice Throne. Artists did a live carving of a DJ booth from solid ice before music took over the evening. Families and friends posed for photos with icy frames, and adults sipped on specialty cocktails served through ice luges.
Our community connection is the reason Media is the place for seasonal local fun. Visit Delco says “They say Delco is a lot, and they’re right,” and Ice On State proved how much heart and warmth lives here.
