There’s still time to get into the festive spirit with Edinburgh’s Christmas.
As things gear up for the big day, give the gift of memories to the whole family – hurry and secure your tickets for Edinburgh’s Christmas attractions, including the Polar Ice Bar, the Ice Rink with Emirates, and much, much more.
Here are our top picks and top tips for enjoying Edinburgh’s festive season the right way:
If you’re looking for experiential gifts and something to create lasting memories with your loved ones, look no further than Edinburgh’s Christmas festive attractions. Glide into Christmas along the iconic George Street Ice Rink with Emirates – ideal for a yearly family tradition, a unique date night, or a night out with friends! The Late Skates sessions are the perfect time to don your glad rags and boogie along the ice. Warm up afterwards with a festive mulled drink or hot chocolate – add an Edinburgh’s Christmas mug to your order and take home the perfect piece of festive memorabilia.

Elsewhere on George Street, the Polar Ice Bar, newly redesigned as the Ice Queen’s Castle, is as spectacular as you can imagine, with stunning ice sculptures and delicious Whitebox cocktails. The Family Ice Experience is hugely popular too, with limited sessions available, so snap up the last remaining tickets before they sell out and make memories with the wee ones they’ll never forget.
Santa has set up shop in West Princes Street Gardens this year, and there’s still time to get your Christmas list to him – but tickets are flying faster than Rudolf on Christmas Eve, so be quick!

Telling tales and giving out gifts at Santa’s Stories, the big man is getting ready for Christmas Eve and needs all the festive cheer he can get – so bring the little ones along for a visit.
Midweek slots are available for all the attractions, so why not add a bit of festive cheer to your routine by soaking up the Christmas atmosphere any day of the week?

With great merriment comes great popularity, and Edinburgh’s Christmas sites are at their busiest on the weekends. So, if you’re looking for that perfect gift or festive treat at the Christmas Markets, we recommend getting down early or visiting midweek. If you’re searching for something extra special, the independent stalls at Castle Street Market are open until 22 December and just up the road from East Princes Street Gardens, showcasing the very best of local artisans, makers and charities – the perfect place to find a locally made gift for your loved ones.
