This winter, step into a winter wonderland and have fun on the ice at Edinburgh’s Christmas Ice Rink. Situated on picturesque George Street, perfect your ice skating skills on the undercover rink, before warming up with a mulled wine or hot chocolate or taking a spin on one of the vintage funfair rides.

Skate aids are available (at an additional charge) for anyone who needs an extra hand to skate confidently. Have your own skates? Great, you are more than welcome to bring them with you! Toddler skating sessions and relaxed sessions (with softer lighting and sound) are available on designated dates. A small number of sensory backpacks will be available for hire – designed to help users relax, these contain a fidget toy, earplugs, chewable toy, stress reliever and ear defenders. For more details on accessibility at the Ice Rink see Edinburgh’s Christmas FAQ page.
