Edinburgh Ice Rink

George Street, Edinburgh

Take to the Ice

 15th of November to 4th of January 2026

Whether you are a seasoned skater, looking to learn or simply looking for a festive activity with family and friends,  take to the ice with Edinburgh’s largest outdoor ice rink, located on West George Street just a short distance from The Resident Edinburgh. Ring in the Christmas season with atmospheric festive music, great food and a series of festive tipples including Mulled Wine or Baileys.

With a variety of accessible, relaxed sessions for those needing a slightly quieter environment and devoted sessions for toddlers, the Edinburgh Ice Rink welcomes families of all ages and needs.

For older audiences looking to avoid the crowds, why not join one of their adult-only ‘late skate’ sessions, with a devoted DJ to get you into the party spirit?
