What to wear
We recommend dressing warmly in layers. Gloves and socks are mandatory, and it's always a good idea to bring a change of clothes for little ones. We will have gloves available to purchase if you forget yours.
Spectator Space: Not skating? No problem! We’ve got plenty of room for spectators to watch the fun and soak in the festive atmosphere. You'll still need to dress warmly!
Skates & Session Times
Your session on the ice is 45 minutes and begins on the hour. For example if your booking is at 12pm this is when you will go on the ice so you need to be ready! We suggest arriving at least 15 minutes early to park up, check in and get those skates on!
Skate hire is included in the price and we offer skates from an EU 26 (UK 8.5) to and EU 50 (UK 14). You're welcome to bring your own skates!
