Each winter, for two days at the end of January, the frozen lake of St. Moritz becomes the setting for The I.C.E., the International Concours of Elegance. Collector cars that rarely leave their garages are presented on the ice against the Engadin peaks, then driven before an audience of collectors, designers and families who return year after year.
The 2027 edition is scheduled for 29 and 30 January. The first day is a static presentation of the cars on the lake; the second brings the parade on ice and the Best in Show award. As with every event held on the lake, the programme depends on the condition of the ice, which the organisers confirm closer to the date.
Opera Prestige does not sell a fixed package. We arrange access to the event around the rest of your stay: a chalet, apartment or suite in St. Moritz, the flight into Samedan, a chauffeur for the weekend and reservations for the evenings, coordinated by a single contact.

A Weekend at The I.C.E. — Typical Programme

How we usually structure the weekend for private clients. Every element can be moved, added or removed.

  1. Thursday 28 January Arrival

    Arrival in the Engadin

    Private jet or helicopter into Samedan, transfer to your residence and a quiet first evening in St. Moritz. When you travel from the Riviera, our private aviation team coordinates the whole route.

  2. Friday 29 January Day One

    Static Presentation on the Lake

    The cars are presented on the ice for close viewing. A morning on the lake, lunch in town, and the afternoon free for the slopes or the spa.

  3. Sunday 31 January Departure

    A Last Morning in St. Moritz

    A late breakfast, a final walk by the lake and a departure timed around the weather and your flight slot at Samedan.

  4. 22–24 January 2027 The Weekend Before

    Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz

    The Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz is played on the same lake the weekend before. Some clients arrive early and attend both; White Turf horse racing on snow follows in February.

✦ Our Commitment ✦

The I.C.E. St. Moritz — Why Opera Prestige

A weekend on the frozen lake involves more than the event itself: the flight, the residence, the car, the tables. We bring them together in one arrangement.

  • 01

    One Arrangement

    Access, residence, aviation and ground transport are handled together, so a change to one is reflected in the others.

  • 02

    Alpine Season

    Each winter we place clients in staffed chalets across the Alps; St. Moritz in January is part of the same season. For the event weeks, we source chalets and suites in St. Moritz.

  • 03

    Weather-Aware Planning

    Events on the lake depend on the ice, and flights into Samedan on visibility. We plan an alternative for both.

  • 04

    Discretion

    Requests are handled privately by a small team, without publicity.
