The UK’s most beautiful Christmas ice rink is back, powered by renewable energy. With its unrivalled setting in front of Brighton’s iconic Royal Pavilion, and ice like glass, the rink has been welcoming visitors since 2010. It’s still the UK’s only Christmas ice rink powered exclusively by solar, wind and wave energy.

The Royal Pavilion Ice Rink is beautifully lit at night for a truly magical Christmas skate, and located within Brighton’s bustling North Laine district, packed with independent shops perfect for Christmas shopping. The huge main rink offers plenty of space for more confident skaters and the separate beginners’ rink provides a safe area for younger skaters to build confidence with penguin skate aids.

For those looking to just sit back and soak up the festive atmosphere, there’s no charge for spectating from the rink-side bar & kitchen over a delicious warming hot chocolate or mulled wine and a full menu offering tasty treats.
