Sleigh bells ring…are you listening? We’re skating through a Hertfordshire wonderland with these top Christmas skating rinks and frosty experiences. It’s time to lace up your skates, pirouette across the ice, grab a mulled wine and celebrate the season in style.
Planet Ice
In Hemel Hempstead Planet Ice is our go-to for family ice skating sessions. With penguin skating aids, little learners will soon be steady on their feet, while those who show that pirouetting promise can even book in for 121 sessions in ice hockey, ice dancing and figure skating!
Skate Letchworth
Wrap up warm and live out those Frozen dreams this Christmas as the Letchworth Outdoor Pool is transformed into a skating wonderland. Little ones can release their inner Elsa, while you and your friends can catch up as you take a spin at one of the evening sessions. Seasoned pro or learner on ice, this is one guaranteed way to get you into the festive spirit.
The Snow Centre
Not quite ice skating, but it’s Hertfordshire’s true winter wonderland! Head to the Snow Centre, where the temperature is a frosty -2 degrees, and hit those real snow slopes! From beginner to pro, the Snow Centre is the perfect spot to find your snow legs and try your hand at skiing or snowboarding. And if you really fancy some family fun, we recommend a ride aboard the ringo slide, or even some real snow sledging. Once you’ve finished, a hot chocolate in the café awaits.
Skate Stevenage
Event Island in Stevenage will be getting a festive makeover this Christmas as the brand new state-of-the-art ice rink is revealed! Wrap up warm, get together a group and pirouette across the ice, or treat your little polar bears to a brand new experience with skate aids to help them take those first frosty steps!
