For Christmas 2019, the large ice rink on the Grande Arche de la Défense is back at 110 meters altitude, for a new season. Come skate with family and friends, with a 360° panoramic view of Paris and its great belt, from December 20, 2019 to January 5, 2020.

The Toit de la Grande Arche is once again installing an ephemeral Christmas ice rink for these 2019 festive season, this year from December 20, 2019 to January 5, 2020.

For the second year running, you can skate on the rooftops of Paris, with a breathtaking view of the capital and its surroundings. If it's chilly up high, you'll really feel the sensation of lightness 110 meters above the ground.

Don't forget to bring your gloves - they're compulsory. The skating rink is open every day from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., with night-time skating to boot, so you can enjoy the view of Paris by Night!

If you're not too sore, there's a fine graffiti and street art exhibition byFrench artist Cyril Kongo on the floor below (if you're going to pay, you might as well take advantage of the Grande Arche's entertainment all the way!)

And while we're at it, there's no excuse not to visit the Marché de Noël de La Défense, the biggest Christmas market in the Ile de France region. More than 350 exhibitors are expected to set up shop over 13,000 m², under an 18-metre-high Christmas tree!
