Ice Magic is launching Singapore’s first-ever dog winter event, 4 Paws @ Ice Magic. Taking place over four days on 13, 14, 20 and 21 January 2024, 4 Paws @ Ice Magic will welcome dog owners and their furry friends for a once-in-a-lifetime snowy paw-date at Ice Magic: Winter Wonderland at the Bayfront Event Space.
4 Paws @ Ice Magic: Winter Wonderland
During these special dates, dog owners and their furry friends will get to experience real snow and ice together in Singapore for the first time.
There will be 3,000 sqm of space for all furry friends to chill out and capture picturesque moments against the backdrop of Wooden Cottages, and be immersed in a world of mesmerising glacial art with igloo sculptures, enchanting illuminated icicles and more.
Dogs and their owners will be able to glide down the five-lane Mini Ice Slide, take a ride on Singapore’s first Merry-Go-Round on Ice and have fun on the 300 sqm Ice Rink.
Guidelines for Dogs and Owners to Enjoy Ice Magic
Owners who intend to take their dogs to experience the cold together will need to keep the dogs on a leash at all times, and the leash has to be held firmly. Dogs will need to supervised at all times.
Every dog must be accompanied by at least one adult and no running or dog running is allowed.
For safety reasons, large dogs weighing above 8 kg will not be allowed to ride the Double-Lane Ice Slide nor the Snow Slope.
Owners should also make sure that their dogs are free from contagious diseases or parasites.
It is also advisable to limit playtime to around 45 minutes, taking into consideration the dog’s comfort and how well they can handle the cold.
The temperatures at Ice Magic: Winter Wonderland dips to below -15 degrees. Therefore, dog owners should ensure that their dogs are dressed warmly and protected against the cold. If necessary, the dogs, particularly those that sport a single-layer fur coat, may wish to be dressed up warmly.
Small and medium-sized dogs are recommended to wear dog shoes for extra grip and protection against the cold.
Dogs are required to wear diapers (female) or belly bands (male) throughout the event.

Read on to find out more about the snow-filled experience at Ice Magic Singapore, which will be taking place till 21 January 2024.
Ice Magic: Winter Wonderland Highlights
Ice Magic: Winter Wonderland offers different activities within its enchanting, white world. You can experience sub-zero temperatures of as low as -15 degrees Celsius inside the snow-filled space.
Each ticket holder is entitled to a snow jacket and a pair of snow boots. Take note that socks are compulsory when wearing the Ice Magic snow boots.
A recommendation that we have is to bring along a pair of gloves to keep the hands warm. It would also be good if you have a snow hat or ear muffs to keep the ears toasty too!
Once you are all geared up, step through the doors at Ice Magic and be transported from the tropics to the Arctic.
Singapore’s Longest Snow Slope
Ice Magic: Winter Wonderland has Singapore’s longest snow slope.
At 98 metres in length (that’s longer than a football pitch!) and seven metres wide, the snow slope at this year’s Ice Magic is quite impressive. It starts from a height of 6.5 metres so there is plenty of gravity-fuelled fun that can be enjoyed on the slope.
You can grab a snow tire, kick back and glide your way down the snow slope.
Double Lane Couple Ice Slide
Parent and child, brother and sister, and dating couples. These are just some of the options that the Double Lane Couple Ice Slide can accommodate.
Climb your way up the stairs to the top of the ice slide at Ice Magic and then hang on as you slide your way down.
Choose to go hand in hand for a merry ride, or race one-on-one to the bottom as quickly as possible.
It is double the fun at the Double Lane Couple Ice Slide.
Kids Slide & Skating Rink
Younger kids (and adults who are young at heart) can enjoy a five-lane kids’ slide.
There is also a 300 square metre ice rink for kids to slide around!
Merry-Go-Round on Ice
Go through the forest of Christmas trees to get to the Merry-Go-Round on Ice.
Climb into one of the snow tubes that make up this eight-metre diameter carousel that rotates on top of the snowy ground.
Go for a spin and enjoy the joys of spinning around carefree in the winter wonderland.
Ice Sculptures and Igloos
You can also pose for pictures with your family and friends around Ice Magic: Winter Wonderland.
A nice photo spot is at the igloos. You can also pop inside and imagine that you are sheltering from the blistering cold outside.
Enchanted Nights at Ice Magic
For those who stay until the end of each session, there is an extra treat.
The main lights go down, allowing the colourful lights on the sculptures and various structures to shine through.
Enchanted Nights at Ice Magic is a mesmerising way to end your time in the cold at Ice Magic: Winter Wonderland.
Winter Food Village
After playing in the snow area at Ice Magic, you can warm up with some yummy grub at the Winter Food Village.
Choose from different kiosks serving winter-inspired food to warm your belly.
Pick up Swiss Rosti by Wado, The Wintry Spiced Wine by Booze Affairs, S’mores Toasticle by Milkbear, and more. Find a seat at the Winter Food Village and chill out (pun intended) after your wintertime experience.
