Bridlington Ice Trail 2026: Best pictures as stunning ice sculptures decorate streets of Yorkshire town

Temperatures have plummeted across Yorkshire in recent days - which may be a good thing for one of the region’s most creative winter events.

The Bridlington Ice Trail returned for 2026 this weekend, transforming the town into a living art gallery of incredible sculptures all made out of ice.

The event ran across this weekend, and it wasn't just ice sculptures that were on show.

As well as market stalls packed full of local treats and gifts, there were also fiery live displays behind held across the town.

We sent photographer James Hardisty along to check out the artwork.

Take a look at his gallery below.
