Get ready for some family-fun this Christmas as the skating spectacular kicks off at West Midlands Safari Park.
From Friday, November 24 until Sunday, January 7, the Park is inviting guests to try out their skating skills on its brand-new Glice® rink.
The eco-friendly ice rink alternative is suitable for the whole family and doesn’t need any water or energy making it more sustainable without a soggy bottom in sight.
As well as skating the day away, visitors will also get the chance to see Santa in his magical grotto during the day or even the evening on selected dates.
In fact, ahead of the opening, Santa himself even tested out the new ice rink with his Head Elf.
Head of marketing, Rochelle Zare, said: “Christmas is one of the best times of the year to visit West Midland Safari Park and this year is no exception.
“After the tremendous amount of work that’s been put into this year’s event, the team cannot wait to see the faces of families entering the Park, seeing the beautiful winter wonderland we’ve created and experiencing our magical grotto and new Glice® rink.”
Guests looking for some extra festive fun can choose to purchase a skating only ticket or add Safari Skating to their Santa Safari or winter visit to the Park.
There will also be the opportunity to purchase some winter gifts or festive food and drinks at the new outlets next to the rink.
All of this can be enjoyed in the magical winter wonderland landscape that has been created for the festive season with more than 300 Christmas trees, new illuminated characters, lights, baubles, photo points and even thick layers of ‘snow’.
