Festive Family Fun at the National Ice Centre
It’s never too soon to plan festive family fun! We’ve teamed up with the National Ice Centre here in Nottingham to offer a fabulous festive experience for all the family this Christmas.
The centre on Bolero Square pulls out all the stops for the festive season with a huge Christmas tree, twinkling lights and all the holiday hits playing. The festive skating sessions have something for everyone from tiny tots, teens, families, couples, groups and more.
There will be a surprise guest turning on the Christmas lights, and special festive character skates as well as loads of public skating sessions. Not only that, Santa will be welcoming visitors to his magical grotto in December. A visit to the grotto includes a meet with Santa, a Christmas gift and a children’s hot chocolate. Children can also write and post their letter to Santa in the postbox in the foyer.
We’ve got a Santa’s Grotto Pass and a Family Skate Pass for 4 to be won. The Santa’s Grotto will be open for visits from 21 to 24 December. The prize is redeemable on any of those dates.
Christmas at the Motorpoint Arena and National Ice Centre has something for all the family with a full programme of music concerts, top family shows and festive skating.
The closing date for this month’s National Ice Centre Competition is Friday 25th October 2024. Good luck!
Win a pair of tickets to BBC Concert Orchestra – Sinatra & Garland
Come on, get happy! Ol’ Blue Eyes is back, as the BBC Concert Orchestra presents a swinging salute to the classic movies of Judy Garland and Frank Sinatra on Wednesday 30 October at Royal Concert Hall, Nottingham.
Well, ring-a-ding-ding! She was Hollywood’s first lady of song, the girl whose soaring voice could whirl you over the rainbow or make the whole screen light up with joy. He was the Chairman of the Board: a singer whose charisma broke the bank in Vegas and who made the Great American Songbook swing like never before. And for one night only they’re back – live in Nottingham as the BBC Concert Orchestra and conductor Richard Balcombe salute the movies of Judy Garland and Frank Sinatra.
Naturally, we’re hitting town in style, pairing top vocalists Louise Dearman and Graham Bickley with the original symphonic arrangements to recreate the glamour, the glory and the sheer, irresistible swing of that golden age of the silver screen. They’re all here: songs from High Society, Kiss Me Kate, Easter Parade, Meet Me in St Louis, Guys and Dolls, Pal Joey and of course The Wizard of Oz. You know them, you love them, and they’ve never sounded more alive. Come fly with us tonight!
