York is a vibrant festival city with Roman roots and a Viking past, offering an adventure for everyone. One of Britain’s most beautiful and historic cities, this unique 2000-year-old walled city has more attraction per square mile than any other city in the UK. This weekend is the annual Ice Trail. Follow a trail of spectacular ice sculptures through these historic streets as ‘Legends Unleashed’ takes over the city! This year’s trail will bring legendary stories and characters to life, inspired by history and folklore. A stroll down The Shambles and warming up in a cosy café is a must, if you can take your eyes off the incredible ice carving in action!

Boasting the National Railway Museum, one of the world’s most magnificent cathedrals, York Minster, and the world-famous JORVIK Viking Centre, you’ll find world-class museums, galleries and guided tours uncovering hidden secrets all within easy walking distance. Crowned Britain’s home of chocolate and the most haunted city in Europe, York is abundant with culture and character. Plus, the city’s thriving creative and arts community has earned an esteemed UNESCO City of Media Arts status. Plan your original city adventure today with visityork.org.
