SNFCC Ice Rink | 2022/23

December 1st marks the comeback of the Ice Rink at the SNFCC Canal, and aspiring figure skaters will once again twist and twirl on the ice against the sounds of beloved Christmas songs, while beginners have the opportunity to learn in a fairytale-like setting.

This year, however, the beloved Christmas Ice Rink returns with a major change. As part of the SNFCC's environmental sustainability strategy, the Ice Rink facility uses synthetic ice, which has zero energy consumption and offers a different experience to all aspiring skaters.

Situated by the north bank of the Canal, close to the Visitors Center, the Ice Rink provides lovers of this winter sport the chance to enjoy a magnificent insider’s view of the Dancing Fountains.

The Ice Rink will operate daily, from 10:00 to 22:00, weather permitting.

01/12/2022 - 31/01/2023, 10.00-22.00*

*On 31/12, the Ice Rink will remain open until 02.00 a.m.
