One of the UK’s biggest and best ice rinks is right on our doorstep.

As the National Centre for Ice Sports in Wales, Deeside Ice Rink boasts a 60m long Olympic-size ice pad, catering for ice sports and activities ranging from hockey and curling to disco on ice.

It has been the springboard training venue for numerous national ice skating champions, three Winter Olympians and occasionally is even a training venue for celebrities preparing for Dancing on Ice!

There is something for all ages and abilities, and whether you're an experienced skater or a novice, you're guaranteed to enjoy the facilities Deeside Ice Rink has to offer.

You can hire your ice skates for a small fee and for the younger, less experienced skaters, there is a batch of model penguins for hire which can be used to help youngsters gain confidence on the ice.

Once in, you can skate all day, and when you’re tired you can refuel at the food bar which offers a range of drinks and hot food.

So why not have a go at speed skating, elegant figure skating, or just have some fun- you’re guaranteed a fun day out at Deeside Ice Rink. For free child admission, just cut out the coupon in this week's Pioneer.
