At The Queen’s House Ice Rink, we believe everyone in Greenwich should have the chance to skate beneath one of London’s most beautiful buildings. That’s why this winter we’ve created our biggest ever range of offers for families, kids, students, schools, locals and community groups, making us one of the most accessible ice rinks in London.
The rink is back from 18 November 2026 to 3 January 2027, and this year the ice is 30% bigger with session capacity kept the same. That means more space for little ones finding their feet, families skating together and first timers taking it at their own pace.
