Stillwater, Minnesota is powered by small businesses with big hearts. In 2020, when busy little Main Street came to a startling halt due to the Covid pandemic, the community feared for the future of the bustling tourist town. Led by the Mayor, the Chamber of Commerce, and City Staff and locals, the Wintertime in Stillwater movement was created.
The community worked together to find ideas and inspiration that could save struggling businesses and provide long term success during the cold winter months. Stillwater, a haven for the arts, seemed like a perfect fit for a snow sculpting event. Upon further investigation, they learned about Winter Fun LLC, a snow sculpting organization. They were searching for the right host for a World Competition and found Stillwater to be the perfect spot for the inaugural event! Once again, the strength of this small town showed up, and thousands of dollars of in-kind and cash donations poured in from local businesses to support the launch of the most incredible wintertime event. 50,000+ visitors flooded the streets to see the sculptures, eat at restaurants and shop at the boutiques.
The Greater Stillwater Chamber of Commerce Foundation, in partnership with Discover Stillwater, The Greater Stillwater Chamber of Commerce and the City of Stillwater, is honored to host the 3rd Annual 2024 World Snow Sculpting Championship Competition sanctioned by the Association Internationale de Sculpture sur Neige et Clace based in Finland. Teams from around the world travel to Stillwater, Minnesota to create amazing snow sculptures while competing for prize money and the title of World Champion. This is a judged event and includes social events, activities, ceremonies, the people's choice award and fun for the whole family!
Stillwater is excited for another year of partnership, fun, community, and a little competition!
