Following sell-out sessions last year, visitors can have a magical festive experience, shop for gifts and decorations and have some fun on the ice at this family-run British Garden Centres store.

This will be the second time that the skating rink is coming to Brigg and this year it is opening earlier to accommodate demand with the ice opening on October 21st. Tickets for the ice rink are priced at £6.95 per person or £25 per family (2 Adults and 2 Children). The cost of skate hire or penguin aids is included in the ticket price.

Each ice-skating session will last for 30 minutes. Lockers are available for visitors to store their belongings while they skate, with a refundable deposit of £2. Skate aid Penguins will be available every day for those who are less confident on the ice.

We are a one-stop shop for all things Christmas and we can’t wait to celebrate with customers old and new in store!”
