The Royal Pavilion Ice Rink is a festive, family‑friendly ice skating rink set in front of Brighton’s iconic Royal Pavilion. It offers both a large main rink and a separate beginners’ rink, making it suitable for children, young people and families of all abilities. Visitors can also enjoy the cosy rinkside bar and café, which serves hot drinks, snacks and seasonal treats throughout the day.
The rink is fully accessible to wheelchair users. All entrances and exits are ramped, and the café and viewing areas can be accessed step‑free. A disabled toilet is available onsite. The rink provides a daily wheelchair‑friendly skating session from 10:00am to 10:45am, giving children who use wheelchairs a safe and supported time to enjoy the ice (except on 24th December 2025).
If you would like to skate with us outside of these times, please email the Rink Manager at [email protected] with your request, and we will do our best to accommodate you (subject to availability).
The ice rink is a short walk from Brighton Station, making it easy for families to reach via public transport. It is a welcoming festive attraction where families can enjoy a seasonal activity together in a magical setting.
