The Liverpool Christmas Ice Festival is back for 2019

This winter, Liverpool Christmas Ice Festival returns to the city for the fourth year, transforming Pier Head into an enchanting winter wonderland.

The Liverpool Christmas Ice Festival is returning for 2019 and the conic waterfront location will be dramatically altered for the season, packed with family- friendly attractions including a large ice rink, ice-themed rides, a funfair and food stalls.

The large outdoor rink returns to the Pier Head venue complete with a canopy for skating whatever the weather. Due to popular demand last year, the availability of penguin skate aids has been doubled and are available to book online now, along with ice skating tickets.

After a turn out on the ice, festival goers can enjoy the thrills of the UK’s longest ice slide with three, 30-metre-long slides for an exhilarating ride and panoramic views of the iconic Three Graces due to its elevated position, six metres above the park.

The Ice Jet ride – a firm favourite with visitors – is set to make its third appearance at the event, complete with a sound and light show as part of the immersive encounter to entertain the thrill seekers in the family.

A fun day out for all, the pop-up food and drink stalls complete the experience, selling a variety of seasonal treats including traditional German bratwurst, mulled wine and hot chocolate.

Special events and offers will take place throughout the season. 

These include Buy One Get One Free tickets for students during November off-peak skating sessions, plus 25 per cent off admission for Save The Children’s Christmas Jumper Day for those who wear a Christmas sweater on 13 December 2019.

The Liverpool Christmas Ice Festival opens daily from 13 November 2019 to 5 January 2020. Closed Christmas Day.
