Tips & Advice
- Book tickets well in advance, especially for peak times, as sessions have limited capacity and are expected to sell out.
- Arrive at least 20 minutes before your booked ice skating session to allow ample time for skate fitting and securing belongings.
- Dress in warm, waterproof outdoor clothing for ice skating, as there's a risk of getting wet even under the covered rink.
- Consider the 'Toddlers on Ice' sessions on weekdays during term time for a dedicated, safe, and joyful experience for young children (ages 3-5).
- While ice skating does not include a Santa visit, the Elf Express experience does; plan your visit accordingly if meeting Santa is a priority.
