It’s never too soon to plan festive family fun! The National Ice Centre has opened up bookings to meet Santa as part of a fabulous festive experience for all the family this Christmas. 

Santa's Grotto at the National Ice Centre

Don't miss your chance to embark on a frosty adventure to the North Pole as the Centre transforms into an enchanting winter wonderland filled with festive fun, ice skating excitement and a sprinkle of Christmas magic.

The big man will be welcoming visitors to his magical grotto in December next to the huge indoor skating rink transformed for Christmas. A visit to the grotto will be an enchanting experience with twinkling lights and Santa’s helpers showing the way. 

Children will receive a Christmas gift from Santa and a token for a hot chocolate, with festive colouring stations and a spot to write a letter to Santa adding to the fun. Santa's Grotto will be open for visits from 21 to 24 December, with festive tickets including a skating pass for children. 

Booking for Santa’s Grotto is now open, with morning and afternoon slots on offer before Santa heads off on Christmas Eve. 

Christmas Lights at the National Ice Centre

There will be a surprise guest turning on the Christmas lights on 1st December to mark the start of the festive skating. Known for pulling out all the stops for the festive season with a gigantic Christmas tree, festive lighting and all the holiday hits playing, the National Ice Centre in the heart of Nottingham is an accessible day out for families. 

Christmas at the Motorpoint Arena Nottingham also has plenty on offer for all the family with a full programme of music concerts, top family shows and more.
