Fans of Disney's "Frozen" have had a treat at Covent Garden this November and December with a celebration of all things "Frozen", which is currently showing at Theatre Royal Drury Lane. Visitors can visit the "Frozen" artwork with Christmas trees in front of the market, and snow falls to an instrumental version of the animation's famous "Let it Go" song every hour from mid-day. Over the past few weeks, the market has been the place for "Frozen" fans with an infinity light tunnel, costumes, and ice sculptures in addition to the falling snow and music.
The infinity light tunnel at Conduit Court in Covent Garden has become themed to blues and whites for "Frozen" with lyrics to the "Let it Go" song on display above the tunnel. Both times that I visited, it was attracting a large group of visitors.
The "Frozen Forest" is a cluster of decorated trees and the "Frozen" logo in front. This is where the snow falls each hour and where music is played. It attracts a lot of people, but the quietest time was in the morning. On the first weekend, it was particularly busy because that was also the weekend of the ice sculptures, and so many parents were around with their children dressed as their favourite "Frozen" characters.
Several ice sculptures were displayed for one day only in early November. In addition to the display, which was put on by The Ice Co, one of Europe's largest ice sculpture companies, the sculpture of Sven the reindeer was being carved in front of an audience. I visited in the early afternoon, and the sculotures appeared to be melting quickly.
The last "Frozen" fun at Covent Garden features fashion. Central Saint Martin's and Disney's "Frozen" have partnered together. The inspiration was on fashion in stage, and they were inspired by "Frozen". Six of the items were on display inside Covent Garden market.
The "Frozen" display at Covent Garden's last day is on December 27, so if you do want to see it, then head over. Alternatively, if you are a Lego fan, there is an additional Lego installation at Covent Garden, and you can see the details here: "Christmas Carousel of Creativity": Lego Returns to Covent Garden.
