Lengthening the show run until 8th January 2023, those looking to book in some festive fun over the Christmas holidays are being encouraged to get their skates on today in hopes of nabbing tickets to the coolest Christmas event in town which boasts the UK’s biggest ice-rink and first ever Snow Wheel.

In addition, this year, itison also extended the spectating area, opened its Skate-Side-Dining restaurant, and added a toddler rink, making the event perfect for the whole family whether you are a glider or a collider.

The new dates will also extend some of the brand-new skating sessions added to Elfingrove this year, allowing everyone to make the most of their Christmas holidays at the Elfingrove Skate School for adults and kids, enjoy a Relaxed Session for those with sensory needs, or Skate with our Snow Princesses for those looking for a touch of Ice Magic over the festive break.

Creator of Elfingrove and itison CEO, Oli Norman, said: “It’s been brilliant seeing how much everyone is enjoying Elfingrove again this year, so we wanted to extend the event run to give everyone across the country the chance to come along and enjoy some Ice Magic during the Christmas holidays.

“In past years we’ve seen these tickets fly out the door with people planning for the post-Christmas lull and getting those last-minute Secret Santa and stocking fillers, so get going now!”

Tickets went live this morning at 7.30am exclusively on www.itison.com/elfingrove

Skate Side Dining is bookable via www.itison.com

itison’s E.L.F (Elf Legacy Fund) is back for 2022 and will be donating 4,000 free tickets to local charities, community groups and causes to help those who might not be able to attend otherwise.
