Outdoor Ice Rink Aberdeen

Photographs and information about the outdoor ice rink during Christmas time at the Union Terrace Gardens in Aberdeen






The outdoor ice rink at Union Terrace Gardens Park forms part of the Christmas celebrations and has returned to the City thanks to the Aberdeen Inspired business network and Aberdeen City Council.




Opening times can be found on the Christmas Village Market at Union Terrace page.








It can hold 50 skaters and costs £4 per person (Monday to Friday from 2pm-5pm) or £6 at other times. This admission fee includes skate hire from the Xmas Ice Rink and use of the panda bear or penguin aids.

Other Christmas activities in the park during the opening times of the ice rink include a Santa’s Grotto, Brass Band, wreath making classes, storytelling, a hot drinks barista van, a roasted chestnuts stall and even a Dad’s Creche!

The last outdoor ice rink was in the Castlegate last year and raised funds for local Northsound Radio charity Cash for Kids.


If you have a photograph of the Castlegate ice rink I may add to this page or would like to help update the information then please contact me.
