Join us for World Ice Skating Day with free public skate
Lee Valley Ice Centre will be offering FREE skating sessions to mark World Ice Skating Day (WISD) on Sunday 3 December.
We're joining the celebrations this year with the aim to get more kids and young people onto the Ice and developing the future of Ice Skating.
Building on the success of the inaugural event, which saw participation from 47 countries and nearly 170 ice rinks worldwide, WISD is a global celebration of the spirit and joy of ice skating. This annual festival is designed to bring together individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels to revel in the excitement of ice skating sports.
This year's edition promises to elevate the WISD experience with an array of new and exciting partnerships, including Lee Valley Ice Centre, the participation of renowned skating icons, and an expanded list of countries joining the festivities.
Gavin Pearce, General Manager at Lee Valley Ice Centre, said: "We’re thrilled to host World Ice Skating Day at Lee Valley Ice Centre. This event is not only about celebrating the sport we love but also making it accessible to everyone. By offering a free session, we hope to encourage more young people to discover the joy of ice skating and contribute to the vibrant and inclusive ice sports community."
Lee Valley Ice Centre encourages everyone, from seasoned skaters to beginners, to join in the festivities, as they host a free skating session from 9:00 to 10:00 on Sunday 3 December. Lace up your skates and be a part of the global celebration of World Ice Skating Day.
