The coolest experience at Huntsville Botanical Garden returns Jan. 23

HUNTSVILLE – Fire & Ice is back! Start off the year with a one-of-a-kind, unforgettable winter gathering at Huntsville Botanical Garden (HBG) as we throw open the doors and join the elements from 7-11 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 23.

Guests are invited to “chill” with friends while creating warm memories as they explore a winter wonderland of lights. Specialty drinks will be available at the ice luge or attendees can warm up with a spirited drink or hearty soup. The evening will be topped off by roasting marshmallows over fire pits for s’mores, a DJ dance party under the stars, and amazing performances by fire dancer Lila Celeste.

“This is our third year hosting Fire & Ice, and we are so excited to bring this unique event to Huntsville again,” said HBG Visitor Program Coordinator Sharon Singletary. “There truly is nothing like it around here and it’s the perfect way to kick off 2026!”

This event is best suited for adults. Tickets are available for purchase at www.hsvbg.org/calendar- event/fire-and-ice/ and are non-refundable. Food will be available for purchase and warming areas will be available inside and outdoors.

Guests should dress for the elements—warm clothes, layers, and gloves are recommended! Fire & Ice will be held rain or shine, and tickets are non-refundable. Don’t miss this extraordinary blend of fire and ice, creating an evening filled with music, warmth, and winter wonder! All proceeds benefit Huntsville Botanical Garden’s nonprofit mission to connect people to plants to improve quality of life in our region.
