How do you get family ticket as when booking you don’t have that option?
Hi Jade
Unfortunately, this post is from 2015, so you will be unable to purchase tickets. Thank you for pointing this out to us. Why not check out our Ice Skating in Glasgow post for all the best ice rinks in and around Glasgow. I hope this helps.
Are you allowed to wear just one skate if you have an injury boot on the other but can walk on it fine?
I’m not sure. Best to contact Glasgow on Ice about that.

I went ice skating in George Square last year and i loved it. When i arrived at George Square on christams eve i couldnt wait to get onto the ice as it looked really good. While i was waiting to get my ice-skaiting boots i got more & more excited.Eventually it was me & my friends turn to go onto the ice,it was a wonderful feeling to skate under all the twinkiling lights and listen to all the christams songs.I felt as if i was playing a part in a christmas film as it felt so magical. By the end of our session on the ice i was ready to go home and look foward to christams the next day. This year i hope to do the same & spend christmas eve at the ice rink.
