The Reading Fire + Ice Fest will return to downtown Reading for its fifth year in January! Produced and organized by the Reading Downtown Improvement District and funded in large part by Berks County Community Foundation, the festival will take place January 18-19 in the 500 block of Penn Street.
We don’t have a schedule yet, but we can tell you that the festival will feature a variety of indoor and outdoor activities, including a chili cook-off, Snowfall Ball, professional ice-carving competitions, fire performances, live music, and concession stands. All outdoor activities will be free, and the chili cook-off and Snowfall Ball will have nominal entry fees.
