The Festival will run Saturday 2/4 from 10am til 7pm, and Sunday 2/5 from 8am until 2pm, and will feature some incredible ice sculptures created by Larry and the Bikini Boys.

The Cream Ridge winery will be there as well. A fantastic local winery that will be sampling and selling throughout the day at the Fire & Ice Festival.
Admission to the Fire & Ice Festival is just 5 dollars per person, and the event is Pet Friendly as well. Rain dates for the event are February 11th and 12th.
The New Egypt Flea Market Village Shoppes will be open too, so there’s an added layer of stuff to check out. If you’ve never been to the New Egypt Flea Market Village you are really missing out!
If you’ve driven down RT 537 Monmouth Road, just a few miles south of Great Adventure, chances are you’ve wondered about that collection of rustic buildings on the side of the road. Those buildings make up the New Egypt Flea Market Village, a place where even the buildings have a rich history. Each of the 40+ buildings have their own story of a past life in another place and time.
According to the Flea Market website, New Egypt Flea Market Village & Auction was founded by Esler and Sandy Heller in 1959. One of the most unusual buildings is the office. Its past life was a Dairy Queen. But now, it plays double duty as the New Egypt Flea Market Village’s main office and as an antique and collectables shop run by the market’s manager (Mr. Heller’s daughter) Talba Warner.
In total, there’s more than forty historical buildings in the New Egypt Flea Market Village and even more unique shops. The next time you’re driving down RT 537 Monmouth Rd., stop in and take a walk through history. The market is open every Wednesday and Sunday, year-round from 8 am to 2 pm.
