Can my 3-year-old skate?

They can, but the organizer doesn't recommend the ice for kids under 3, and kids under 9 must skate with an adult. Last season, instructors from the Spanish Ice Federation ran 11am classes for €3 extra.

Does a parent who won't skate need a ticket?

Yes. Kids under 16 must come in with an adult, and that adult needs a skating or walk-around ticket. The walk-around ticket only lets you watch from the upper floor.

No, only small 33cl water bottles without caps. Families with kids under 3 can bring sealed baby food and snacks.

Last season there was free outdoor parking at Parking Oeste on Avenida Luis Aragonés and paid parking at Parking Sur on Avenida Arcentales, until full.

About

A skating ticket also opens the food halls and the day's activities: workshops, face painting, Santa visits, a gaming zone and a Playmobil space.
