Ice Rinks in Cardiff

Cardiff's ice rink option is Vindico Arena, a full-size rink close to the centre with public skate sessions, Ice Discos and toddler bob skates for anyone still finding their feet. It covers most ages, so a first family skate and a proper session for older kids can both happen under the same roof. Booking ahead is required, so sort that before you leave the house rather than turning up on spec. There's a cafe if you need a warm-up and a sit down afterwards, free parking so the trip doesn't cost more than the skating, and accessible toilets and blue badge parking for anyone who needs them. Toddlers get the bob skates to hang onto, older children can go straight onto the main ice, and the Ice Discos are worth saving for when your kids are steadier on their blades.
