Christmas Skating

It is now 35 years since Nottingham figure skaters Torvill and Dean swept to victory at the 1984 Sarajevo Winter Olympics. This Christmas you are invited to take to the ice in the gold medallists' home town where you will be able to pirouette like a professional or enjoy a fun-filled afternoon skating with friends or family.

Skating in the Old Market Square


 

The centrepiece of Nottingham's Winter Wonderland is the outdoor ice rink which gives you the chance to skate beneath the stars. This year's rink is bigger than ever before and includes a dedicated children’s area and ice path, allowing skaters to glide around the Old Market Square fountains. Take a walk around the market's snow-capped cabins, listen to live music and marvel at the impressive Christmas tree before gliding around on the ice. The Winter Wonderland is open from 15 November 2019 until 31 December 2019 and further details, including how to book your skating tickets, can be found here.

Skating at the National Ice Centre
 

If you don't want to skate outdoors then head to the National Ice Centre. Around the festival season the huge ice rink is decked out beautifully with Chritsmas decorations ready for festival skating sessions and a host of special themed events and parties. Details will be announced shortly so please check back soon to find out more.
