There’s an awesome new ice rink in west London! ❄️

 

Something big has come to Westfield London, Shepherd’s Bush. The tallest Christmas tree in Europe on an ice rink, to be exact – and it’s a real must-visit this season.

 

This glimmering tree – topped with a huge gleaming star – sits in the centre of a sparkling 1,000M2 block of pure white ice. Bookings are open for 45-minute sessions now, and with tips and tricks provided by the friendly, red-fleeced staff, you’ll be gliding freely around in no time (there are support penguins to hold onto, too!). 

 

It’s the centrepiece of Westfield London’s Winter Village, which is not only home to the ice rink, but also to all the ingredients for a full day or night out. You can get up to three hours of free parking off-peak, and you’ll want that extra time for shopping, exploring and dining. 

 

Speaking of dining, simply show your ice rink ticket to some of the businesses at Westfield London, Shepherd’s Bush and you can take advantage of some very tasty offers. A Belgian waffle smothered in peanut butter and jelly from rinkside restaurant All Star Lanes is just the thing after your skating session – you’ll get 25 percent off all food and drink there. And over at Bindas Eatery, show your ice rink ticket and receive a free button chicken bomb slider or masala chai. You can also get a selected main, side and drink for just £14.95 at Ichiba – nothing better than a hearty post-skating chicken katsu curry! Plus, kids eat free at Westwood Sports Pub and Kitchen with their ice rink ticket. Find the full list of offers here.

 

Lace up those skates, London: it’s time to take your festive feels up a notch.


Tickets to Ice Rink at Winter Village at Westfield London, Shepherd’s Bush start at £11 for children and £15.50 for adults. Runs until January 8, 2023.
