Skate Manchester

Skate Manchester, located in the heart of the city at Cathedral Gardens, is ready to welcome ice skating enthusiasts for winter! The outdoor ice rink will be open from the 27th of October until the 2nd of January 2024, providing the perfect setting for a winter wonderland journey on ice.

No matter the weather, Skate Manchester has got you covered. Our covered ice rink allows visitors to enjoy their skating experience rain or shine. Say goodbye to the distinct possibility of getting soaked in a sudden, very British downpour and embrace the joy of gliding gracefully on the ice.

As you skate, admire the majestic Christmas tree standing tall on the rink, adding a touch of magic and making the atmosphere even more festive. Bring your loved ones and make memories as you sweep, slide, dip, and glide together.

Skate Manchester not only offers a delightful skating experience but also supports a good cause. We have partnered with Greatest Hits Radio's Cash for Kids Mission Christmas campaign, where we will be donating 10% of ticket sales from Monday 27th November until Sunday 3rd December. Join us in spreading the holiday cheer and making a difference.
