Natural History Museum Ice Skating Rink

Once again The Natural History Museum is set to open London's most spectacular winter attraction this year - a stunning outdoor Ice Rink and Café Bar overlooking the skating rink.

The 1,050 square metre outdoor ice skating rink in the magical setting of the Museum's east lawn is sure to be one of the most impressive outdoor rink in London. For younger skaters there is a junior 100 square metre ice rink, linked to the main rink via an ice bridge. Friendly Ice Marshals will be available to give you help or guidance on the ice. Overlooking the Ice Rink will be a spectacular Café Bar and open-air balcony which will offer visitors a bird's-eye view of the Ice Rink. The Café Bar will be serving delicious food, hot and cold drinks and snacks both in the beautiful surroundings of the Café Bar and balcony, or outside at ground level by the Christmas tree.

Please arrive at the Skating Rink 20 minutes before your booked session to allow sufficient time to get your ice skates on. The Natural History Museum Ice Rink is outdoors and ice skating sessions will continue even if it is raining. Please bring suitable outdoor clothing. No refunds will be given due to inclement weather.

Available skate sizes range from childrens' size 7 (approximately 24 European) up to adult size 15 (approximately 50 European)
