L’illa Diagonal

15 years ago, this magnificent ice-skating rink, located just outside the L’illa Diagonal shopping mall, has brought festive cheer to Barcelona. In the heart of the Les Corts neighbourhood, this outdoor rink brings a little taste of New York Christmas magic to a city not exactly renowned for its icy temperatures and winter activities.

There are plenty of activities going ahead for kids who are still in the learning phase of skating. They have penguin-shaped dolls to aid balance and staff on hand to assist.

Important: It is mandatory to wear gloves, if you do not have them you can buy them on the ice rink.

La Maquinista Shopping Mall

Around Christmas time, La Maquinista Shopping Mall builds a fabulous ice-skating rink in the middle of the building, inspired by American roller disco. This ice skating experience gives you the opportunity to make wholesome memories with your family and friends in a beautiful festive atmosphere.

The track, interestingly, is composed of synthetic materials, which don’t employ energy-intensive compressors and are relatively quiet when skating upon them. The outcome is a skating surface that looks like a typical ice rink, but offers an even greater sliding sensation and is much softer to fall onto!
