The original dates for Rochester Fire and Ice Fest 2012 were changed from January 27th through January 29th to February 24th through February 26th due to warm weather. The Fire and Ice Fest event is now Friday, February 24th and Saturday, February 25th only and the third originally scheduled day has been scrapped for 2012. Also, many of the snow-centered activities have been canceled or altered for 2012 Fire and Ice Fest. Hopefully the giant tube hill, sled dog races, and ice-skating return for 2013.

Fire and Ice Fest is hosted by: Oakland County, Oakland County Parks, the City of Rochester and The Downtown Rochester DDA.
