How about skating with friends? it’s true that Christmas ice skating rinks are getting rarer, even absent this year. No rink on the Champs Elysées or in front of the City Hall but there's a rink at the Grand Palais. If your little ones dream of putting on skates, make your way to the Forum des Halles.

A temporary Christmas ice skating rink is set up for the Holiday season, from December 6, 2018 to January 6, 2019. A 200 sqm ice skating rink which asset is to be free of charge.

You can have the pleasure to skate without breaking the bank during these days. The rink is set at the -1 level of the Canopée des Halles, just below the famous Christmas Market.
