Elfingrove returns to Glasgow for 2022: how to get early tickets for under £10

Elfingrove is bringing the UK’s biggest ice rink to Glasgow this Christmas and you'll soon be able to get Earlybird tickets for as little as £8.

The festive event, which is produced and presented by Glasgow-based deals and events company itison, is heading to Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum on November 24, with a month-long run of skating under the stars.

This year, as well as bringing the bespoke, fully covered rink back, Elfingrove will also feature the UK’s first ever Snow Wheel, Skate Side Dining, the Apres Skate Bar, Candyland, a dedicated toddler rink for the wee ones and the chance to skate with Santa.

Described as a world-class ice experience to "rival the great cities of the world", Super Earlybird tickets go on sale on September 29 at 7.30am exclusively on the itison website starting from as little as £8 for kids and £10 for adults (Peak prices: £14 child | £18 adult).

Oli Norman, creator of Elfingrove and itison CEO, said: “Last year over 100,000 people came along to Elfingrove – this year we’re going even bigger creating a larger rink and amazing new ways to enjoy Elfingrove with our Snow Wheel and Skate Side Dining.

"And with the cost of living being a very real thing, we wanted to make sure it’s as accessible for as many people as possible with tickets starting as low as £8 to skate.”

New this year at Elfingrove:

The Snow Wheel – a new way to enjoy Elfingrove from the air as snow falls around you and Christmas tunes fill the air

The Toddler rink - a small dedicated toddler rink off the main ice rink where under 5s can slide and glide wearing bobskates, while safely accompanied by an adult

Skate Side Dining – a one of a kind restaurant overlooking the ice where you can book the best seat in the house for the ultimate Elfingrove experience

Candyland and the Silent Snow Disco – the sweetest spot in town for the ultimate sugar rush with all things candy, candy floss and candy canes plus home to the Silent Snow Disco

Apres Skate Bar – a chilled out bar where you can grab a bite to eat choosing from street food favs with a festive twist, including piping hot grilled cheeses oozing with brie, gourmet hot dogs loaded with pulled turkey, and festive fries with pigs and blankets – plus loads of great options for veggies and vegans.

Special skate sessions:

Skate School – 40 minutes skate lessons for small groups guided by expert instructors for anyone who is more Bambi on Ice than Dancing on Ice

Skate with Santa – Meet Santa and his elves on the ice at Elfingrove in very special skate sessions for big and little believers to meet the big guy

Relaxed sessions – quiet sessions for autistic people and anyone with special or complex needs to enjoy a quieter Elfingrove experience where sound and light will be adjusted to a more ambient level alongside a reduced capacity

itison’s E.L.F (Elf Legacy Fund) is back for 2022 and will be donating 2000 free tickets to local charities, community groups and causes to help those who might not be able to attend otherwise.
