A winter rink in Royal Victoria Park

Bath on Ice sets a spacious real-ice rink in Royal Victoria Park, surrounded by twinkling lights and music. The rink is operable in nearly all weather conditions, barring a blizzard, and rain creates better and smoother ice. Ice marshals are on the rink at all times to help anyone who falls over, and the Moguls Alpine Bar has a viewing platform for those supporting from the side.

Royal Victoria Park was the first park to carry the name of Princess Victoria. It is overlooked by the Royal Crescent, and the Grade II* listed Victoria Column inside its east entrance was erected in 1837 to mark her coming of age. The Botanical Gardens in the north-west of the park were formed in 1887.

Themed skates in the 2026 programme include a Disney skate for the whole family, and a season pass lets skaters glide as many times as they like.
