When festive season arrives, pretty ice skating rinks start to pop up all over London. Throughout November and December, thousands of us whizz (or, let’s be real, nervously shuffle) across the ice in front of gorgeous monuments like Somerset House, Battersea Power Station and Queen’s House Greenwich. But what if we told you that a new rooftop ice rink is coming to town, from which you’ll be able to admire dozens of landmarks all at once?
This winter, an ice skating rink is opening at Peckham’s Bussey Rooftop Bar, offering 360-degree views of London while you glide. When the brand new ICE at Bussey Rooftop Bar launches on November 17 it’ll be one of the highest rinks in the city. Replacing the seasonal Rooftop Film Club, the venue will also be laden with Christmas trees and twinkling fairy lights for the occasion.
Once you’ve scuttled off the ice, you can head for Bussey’s heated rooftop bar for boozy hot chocolates, winter-themed spritzes and festive mocktails. On Fridays and Saturdays, the rink will hot up with high-energy sets from some (yet to be revealed) BBC Radio DJs.
ICE at Bussey Rooftop Bar prices
Tickets are £9 for kids, £14 for adults and £35 for families (but you can get a nice 15 percent off if you book before the end of October).
Opening dates
Slots are available until 11pm every day from November 14 until January 1.
