Placement area for the rink
The area will need to be flat, not sloping and free from debris. We will also need good access for our truck to
drive close as possible due to the rink boards are very heavy.
Can the ice
rink go on a grassed area?
If the rink is to be placed on a grassed area a sub flooring
surface will be required. We can supply this for an extra charge. We can give
more advice on this at the time of booking. Also refer to note above re flat
surface.
Can the rink go
on gravel?
As with grassed area, a sub flooring base may be required.
What is Short
Term Hire?
Any hire period from a few hours up to 7 days is considered
a Short Term Hire.
What is Long
Term Hire?
Periods of hire at the same venue, for more than 7 days are
considered Long Term Hire
How long do the
rinks take to install and to dismantle?
Times will vary depending upon size required see examples
below:
7mx7m and 9m x 8m mobile rinks. Installation time, approx. 2
– 3 hours.
10mx10m and 12m x 12m mobile rinks. Installation time, approx.
4 hours.
Note:It will
take roughly the same amount of time to de-rig.
It is important that these set up and collection times are
taken into account when arranging our arrival / operational and departure
times. On some occasions we may need to install a day before depending on
the start time of the event, this can be discussed further during the booking
process at an extra cost.
How many people
can skate on the rink at any one time?

offer

How long should
we give for each skating session?
If you are charging the public, we would suggest approx. 30
minute sessions to include 20 minutes on the ice plus skate changing times.
How much can we
charge?
This will depend on what you would like to charge, we can
give you examples below, but this is totally up to you and what you intend to use
the profits for. You may want to consider the cost of extras you want to supply
on top as well
Children £6
Adults £12
What size of
rinks do you supply?
We can supply any size rink up to a 12m2, Sizes
can be altered to the area you have available and can be adjusted accordingly,
our general set ups are 8m2, 9m x 8m, 10m2 and 12m2.
We can however discuss different configuration if
requested.
Do you provide
public liability insurance?
We supply £10 million public liability insurance which is
included within the hire fee. A copy of this can be downloaded direct from our
website or emailed on request
For Dry Hire contracts, (Rink supplied without staff), the
hirer would be responsible for arranging their own insurance for this.
Do you provide
risk assessments?
Yes. All our Risk assessments can be found under our “Safety
Documents” page on our website or we will be happy to send this to you once
booked, we can offer a Site Specific Risk Assessment following a site visit at
an extra cost if needed
Inclement
Weather, does this affect the use?
The weather has no effect on the rinks surface, if it is
raining very mild or snowing. If it is a heavy down fall the rink can become
too slippery so you should stop the skaters till it stops and remove the excess
water.
Are ice skates
included in the hire price?
A
selection of different sizes skates will be provided. Please keep in mind we
are bringing 64 pairs of skates and once sizes have been used and more people
want the same size we would not be able to accommodate until next session.
Additional skate sizes can be provided 1 week prior to the event date if stock levels are available or we are more than happy to cover 50% of the cost for additional skate sizes for your event*
* - Additional skate costs are £20 per pair

Can users use
their own ice skates?
The short answer is yes they can, however, due to the nature
of the Synthetic “ice”, we do have to advise that you use these at you own risk
as they may damage the blades.
Can sponsors
place their advertising material on the rink barriers?
Allowing sponsors to place banners around the rink can often
help towards hire costs and is quite acceptable. Depending on what size rink
and the different barriers we use on your event, we have a few different ways
to attach these, this can be discussed during the booking process.
How many hours
of operation are included in the price?
This will be discussed during the booking process, as many
ice rinks can be run by yourselves, you can operate whatever times you feel
necessary. If we are supplying staff, timings will be limited up to 6 hours.
What will I
need to supply?
Apart from the space required and plenty of people to have
fun, the only other thing we require is a 13 amp power source if you require
extras like a sound system, lighting, snow machine ect. If no power source is
available, you can hire a generator from us at an extra cost.
Will I need
security if the rink is hired overnight?
We do suggest that the area this will be place is in a
secure area. If setup in a public area, we advise you have security available
at all times. You will need to arrange your own insurance if dry hired to cover
any damages that may occur in the unlikely event of someone tampering with this
while in your possession
Can disabled
persons use the rink?
We do not like to discriminate and we would like everyone,
no matter what disability they have, to have as much fun as everyone.
Disabled chairs are available prior to your
event date at an extra cost on request.
Is there any
age limits on who can use the rinks?
Once again we do not like to discriminate, however, this
does not depend on age but on shoe size, the table above shows what sizes we
can cater for. We do state that any child under the age of 8 years old be
accompanied by a responsible adult (16+) at all times. You can take your small
child on the rink in their own shoes.
Do you supply
any optional extras, to compliment the rink?
Yes we can. As well as skate aids, music, lighting, power
ect, we have an extensive range of fun Christmas activities to hire through our
website, we can cater for any and all types of events and with over 250 items
in stock, we can make any event special. Please contact us to discuss your
needs and we can work out some great packages for your event.
Why are the
exact prices not listed?
As every event we do is different, we like to offer bespoke
packages to our clients so prices will depend on many different aspects from
location, rink sizes, staffing, added extras ect, the list goes on, be assured,
we will work with you to get the best package at the best price possible.
How do I get a
quote/book?

call or email. Our phone lines are manned 24/7, 365 days a year and our
