skate
Dubai, UAE; December 20, 2011: Emaar Retail LLC, the provider of premium leisure and retail
experiences, presents the Winter Wonderland Programme featuring ‘Snow Babies on Ice’ until
December 31, 2011 at Dubai Ice Rink, the Olympic-sized ice-skating and events venue, located
in The Dubai Mall.
Families will get a real feel of winter and the festive season this year at Dubai Ice Rink, as it
transforms into a Winter Wonderland featuring festive music, activities, decorations, a festive
tree, sleigh rides, gifts and much more.
Gordon Kirk, General Manager, Dubai Ice Rink, said: ‘It’s that special time of the year again,
and we want to offer families a unique Festive Winter atmosphere. With this year’s programming
at Dubai Ice Rink, we bring you the cool and delightful feel of winter and the festive season in all
its splendour.”
Santa will be handing out sweets, treats and gifts while skating with the little ones every
Thursday, Friday and Saturday until Dec. 24 between 4.45 and 7pm. Children will have the
opportunity to take their picture with him on Dec. 23 between 9.45pm and midnight.
The new ‘Snow Babies on Ice’ programme will allow parents to see their little ones familiarise
and learn how to skate, every Monday at 10:00am. Toddlers from 18 months to five years old
will be introduced to skating by a team of well-trained coaches that will evaluate age, level and
teach a 30 minutes class accordingly.
Parents will be allowed to get on ice with their little ones to proudly witness their progression
as they familiarise with the ice rink. In order to learn, toddlers get on the ice, sit, feel and touch
the ice and play with stimulating colourful toys. The coach will encourage the children to pick up
toys of their choice, and once they are ready, will teach them how to skate. Every new skating
athlete gets a certificate upon completion.
The Winter Wonderland Programme will end with a special New Year’s Eve Disco party on Dec.
31 from 9.45pm to midnight. A promise to put everyone in a celebratory mood, a DJ will make
everyone dance and skate to the best beats of 2011.
