All Pally’s lofty indoor skating arena is open year-round for general skating sessions, figure skating classes, ice hockey training, children’s sessions and parties.

Skating is seriously popular, so book in advance, and pick off-peak times to guarantee yourself a decent stint on the ice. Here are some of the best rinks to soar across this winter (or wobble round the edges of like a newborn reindeer, depending on your skill level).
