But at the end of the festival is the Durham Fire and Ice fire show, which sees flames and water shooting into the air in time to music. It's a spectacular show and one which draws a fair crowd, so you'll need to get there early to ensure you get a good spot.
The Durham Fire and Ice fire show 2019 takes place in front of St Nicholas Church in Durham Marketplace. It takes place twice, and on both days of the Fire and Ice festival. On both the Friday and the Saturday, the Durham Fire and Ice fire show will be at 5.15pm and 6pm, and will last for 10 minutes each time.
