Top 3 Outdoor Ice Skating Venues – London
As a London native I have skated at the 3 below. Although London tourist attraction prices tend to be sky high, the whimsical elegant surroundings really are a one off Christmas experience.

1. Somerset House

This grand Tudor palace was originally built in 1547. Now a major cultural centre, its 55 fountains make way for its famously beautiful Ice skating rink in the month of November. Enjoy a cocktail on its club nights underneath the 40ft Bauble infested Christmas tree.

Tickets from £8.00 – £16.00 dependant on the time and event

3. The Natural History Museum

More recently well known from the film ‘Night At The Museum 2’ this magnificent decadent building is as famous for its modern architecture as it is for its Crystal skulls, Mummies and ‘Dippy’ the Diplodocus. The museum itself is Free entry : )
The Ice skating rink here also has a few Bavarian style stalls for a warm hot chocolate or head over to the ringside bar for a festive cocktail.
