This winter, Galway will welcome the arrival of a custom built ice rink in the city centre. Formerly known as Galway Bay on Ice, this year the skating event is partnering with 7UP, and promises to be bigger and better than ever before. 7UP Christmas on Ice is one of Ireland’s largest seasonal attractions with ice rinks across the country.
The event will run from Saturday November 28 to Sunday January 10, and promises festive fun for all the family. Exciting features include a 600m sq ice rink and ice cafe, plus themed events like school skate, decks on ice, skate date, ice dancing displays and skating Santa.
Now celebrating its seventh year, 7Up Christmas on Ice is Ireland’s longest running and most successful family ice-skating event, with over 200,000 visitors to the RDS, Liffey Valley and Letterkenny in 2008 and even more nationwide venues planned for 2009. With spectacular covered ice rinks, striking design and safety precautions there is something for everyone to enjoy from families and schoolchildren, to teenagers and beyond.
