Snow or no snow, the Niagara Icewine Festival returns to the Scotiabank Convention Centre in Niagara Falls Jan. 29-31.

The largest Icewine Festival Event in Canada is expected to draw more than 10,000 visitors who will be able to sip, sample and savour seasonal vintages from Niagara vineyards surrounded by ice sculptures.

“The Niagara Icewine Festival in Niagara Falls has become a must see event,” says festival organizer Anthony Annunziata. “This is an authentic Niagara wine and culinary event that we are very proud of.”

More than 20 of Niagara’s best wineries will feature award-winning wine, icewines and sparkling wines to be paired with savoury dishes created by 10 of Niagara’s best restaurants and culinary masters. Entertainment will be provided by Jonesy, U2 Tribute band Desire and Beatles tribute band, the Caverners, and Soul Jam. Advance tickets start at $8.
