Paisley’s Ice Rink
Paisley Cross
Selected dates and times from Thursday 28th of November to Saturday 28th of December

The Ice Rink will be open selected dates and times from 28th of November up to and including 28th of December.
ASN sessions: These sessions provide extra support for individuals with sensory needs, along with their families and caregivers, so they can have a wonderful time in a calm and enjoyable atmosphere. In these sessions, we limit the number of people on the ice, and the music is either turned off or played at a very low volume.
