A little more info...

Introduction:
Come and skate on the largest seasonal ice rink in London, beneath the 42 foot Christmas tree, specially selected from her majesty the Queens collection at Great Windsor Park, which will stand proud in front of the majestic listed Temperate House. Skating is a traditional yuletide activity and one which is becoming increasingly popular in London. Last year Kew Gardens hosted an ice rink for the first time and following its popularity, the rink will be back this Christmas, bigger and better than ever. These are truly wonderful surroundings to enjoy some festive skating with friends and family.

    Watch out for that tree...... If you see a moth on it, extend your proboscis directly behind its spring-loaded spatula and enjoy the sensation
    GONE ENGLAND

  • How did you see which dates are available? I get the option to enter a date, and it says use the availability search, but I can't find a way of choosing an available date. Any help would be welcomed!
