Scotland’s biggest ever ice rink, The Ice Experience at Elfingrove, opened at the weekend to incredible 5* reviews and with 50,000 tickets already snapped up, organisers itison, have now confirmed 10 additional holiday dates, on sale this Thursday (9th December).
The fully outdoor experience is the second biggest rink in the UK and boasts a world-class, custom designed, ice rink from the team behind Dancing on Ice and Somerset House set against the stunning backdrop of Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.
Originally set to run from 2nd December until Christmas Eve, the new dates will extend the run throughout the Christmas holidays from 26th December until the 4th January (excluding the 1st) and give eager families and friends more opportunity to experience the Winter Wonderland, which alongside the world-class skating experience also includes:
• A stunning light show set against a fully illuminated Kelvingrove Museum
• A skate-up Mallow Café for hot chocolates and mallows
• A Silent Snow Disco to dance and sing as snow falls all around
• The Candy Bar – where elves go to drink, and you can enjoy festive food and drink including pigs in blankets, fondue and Candy Cane cocktails.
Oli Norman, Elfingrove Creator and CEO of itison, said: “We’ve been blown away with the response to The Ice Experience. From Rockefeller Centre in New York to Ice World in Vienna, I’ve skated some of the world’s most iconic rinks so create our own at Kelvingrove Museum to rival those great cities and see so many of you enjoying magical memories on the ice is a real honour.
“50,000 tickets have already been snapped up and this is our final ticket release, so I’d get your skates on and get in quick!”
The Ice Experience at Elfingrove will now be running daily until the 4th January (excluding Christmas Day & New Year’s Day) with time slots every hour between 12noon until 9pm.
Ice Experience tickets are priced at:
• Adult Daytime - £14
• Adult Evening - £16
• Child - £12
• Under 5s go free – under 5s can’t go on the ice due to safety reasons but can spectate or enjoy the Silent Snow Disco and all the other festivities.
Some tickets are still available for the pre-Christmas dates (up until 24th December) while holiday tickets (26th – 4th Jan) will go on sale at 7.30am this Thursday 9th December exclusively at www.itison.com/elfingrove.
They’re expected to go extremely fast so make sure you set your alarms so you don’t miss out and follow Elfingrove on Facebook and Instagram to see the rink in all its glory.
