Get your skates on!

A real ice rink is returning to Le Friquet Garden Centre this winter.

Ice Skate Guernsey will open to the public on Saturday 7 December and will come to a close on Sunday 5 January.

The 20mx20m rink will once again be located in Le Friquet's covered central atrium with the entrance coming from the Christmas department.

Skaters can hire boots and skating aids will be available for children under the age of eight.

Sessions will take place on the hour and will last for 45 minutes.

"Over the past three years, Ice Skate Guernsey has brought a totally unique dimension to our overall winter shopping experience," said General Manager of Le Friquet Garden Centre, James Robin. "It's a real point of difference for families, locals and visitors to enjoy.

"We are delighted that Ice Skate Guernsey will embrace not only the Christmas season but the New Year bank holiday, with the last skating sessions on 5 January 2020, before the schools return the following week."

The rink will be open from 10:00 until 19:00 every day, with the exception of Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve when the last session will be at 15:00.

Adult tickets are priced at £9.50 while children under 14 can skate for £7.50. They are available via iceskateguernsey.com or in person at Le Friquet Garden Centre.
