Skate at Somerset House Returns for Winter 2026 with DJ Nights and K-Pop Party

Somerset House's seasonal ice rink returns to its Edmond J. Safra Fountain Court on 11 November 2026, running through 10 January. Adult tickets range from £15 for off-peak sessions to £28.50 at peak times, with children's tickets priced at £11. Presale tickets go on sale from 10am on Friday 25 September for those who sign up in advance.

The Skate Lates evening programme brings a lineup of DJs and collectives including South Asian creative collective Daytimers, indie community radio Netil Radio, youth culture platform Gauchoworld, QTIPOC-led bass collective BUMPAH, and Latinx queer party organisers 2CPERREA. On 23 November, a K-Pop party held in collaboration with the Korean Cultural Centre will feature music from BTS, BLACKPINK and emerging artists from the region.

During the day, a Skate School caters to adults and teens looking to build confidence on the ice, while a Kids' Club is open to children aged six to 12. Dedicated sessions for wheelchair users and reduced-capacity relaxed sessions are also on offer.

Off the ice, the Shelter pop-up boutique returns alongside the rink, stocking sought-after brands including AllSaints and Nobody's Child, with food and drink available at The Chalet. Ticket holders can also access Somerset House's current exhibitions as part of their visit.
