Thousands of families across Scotland got their skates on to get their hands on Super Earlybird tickets for the highly anticipated Christmas event, Elfingrove, as it returns from 24th November with the UK’s biggest ice-rink, the first ever Snow Wheel, Skate with Santa sessions, a Skate School for adults and kids, and Skate-Side Dining which has already been booked by over 1,000 foodies looking for their favourite festive feasts this winter.
Creator of Elfingrove and itison CEO, Oli Norman, said: “It’s always exciting to see the reaction from people across Scotland for Elfingrove, and this year has been astounding yet again. We’re over the moon to see people making the most of our Super Earlybird tickets which we’ve priced as low as £8 for kids and £10 for adults to make the event even more affordable this year as we all face a cost-of-living crisis.”
Super Earlybird tickets are still up for grabs, and are available exclusively on www.itison.com/elfingrove
Skate Side Dining is bookable via www.itison.com/elfingrove/skateside_dining

SPECIAL SKATE SESSIONS
Skate School – 40 minutes skate lessons for small groups guided by expert instructors for anyone who is more Bambi on Ice than Dancing on Ice

itison’s E.L.F (Elf Legacy Fund) is back for 2022 and will be donating 2000 free tickets to local charities, community groups and causes to help those who might not be able to attend otherwise.
