Read the texts and put the sentences into the correct category. Fairbanks Ice Festival, Alaska If you can cope with freezing temperatures and are looking to see some incredible artwork, head for the Fairbanks Ice Festival in Alaska. Every year, the world's largest ice art competition - the World Ice Art Championships - takes place there. It's a chance to see more than 100 international sculptors create incredible statues of ice before your very eyes. I really enjoyed watching the sculptures take shape. In many ice art competitions, artists work on commercially manufactured blocks of ice. In Alaska, the ice blocks used are taken directly from local ponds. The festival is a month-long event (during February and March) and it is well worth going to. You'll never forget the incredible icy creations you see. Quebec Winter Carnival, Canada If you're looking for a family-friendly festival then you needn't look farther than Quebec's annual Winter Carnival. From snow rafting, horse-drawn sleigh rides and outdoor banquets to snow competitions, dancing and magical night parades - there's a huge variety of events. The streets of Quebec City are decorated for this 10-day event and special events are put on in the city's restaurants. The mood is so friendly and the locals are the perfect hosts. My favourite festival experience was sitting in a hot tub out in the open, among snow-covered pine trees, under a starry night sky! Quebec's Winter Carnival claims to be the biggest winter festival in the world. I don't know if that's the case, but it surely must be one of the best.
