What’s On At Swansea Winter Wonderland
Ice Skating
Why not glide across the sparkling ice rink? It’s HUGE and it’s an undercover ice skating rink, meaning the family can enjoy ice skating whatever the weather! Feeling a little wobbly? No need to worry because you can purchase skating aids! These cute penguins with handles help steady your balance and are ideal for younger children heading out onto the ice.
Spaces for skating sessions, especially those on a weekend, will get filled quickly. Therefore, we recommend you pre-book in advance. In addition to normal skate times, accessible skating sessions are on offer to make sure no one misses out on all the ice rink fun.
Why not take your skating experience to the next level and have a go at the Ice Jet – the only one of its kind in Europe? This audio-visual experience is jam-packed with exciting features like 5,000 running lights, neon lights, lasers, lanterns and disco balls!
Funfair Rides
You’ll be spoilt for choice with all the rides at the funfair! Spin around on the waltzer ride or get a festive view of Swansea Winter Wonderland, all lit up from the big observation wheel. Whether you’re looking for thrills or simply want to chill, this family funfair is complete with classic rides and more daring ones for the thrillseekers!
Food & Drink at Swansea Winter Wonderland
The Alpine Village will have a new extended layout this year with plenty of seating. This is the place to visit for a seasonal tipple and the tastiest food from local traders. From mulled wine and toasted marshmallows to all sorts of festive treats, soak up the Christmassy atmosphere and festivities with your friends and family!
