About Ice Village
The Ice Village is back! With a exciting new Ice Cavern and a brand new Ice Rink!


Ice Village Manchester is back for another year!
Located at Cathedral Gardens in the heart of Manchester’s Christmas Markets, the Ice Village is crammed with traditional stalls selling seasonal handmade gifts, drinks and snacks, and bustling with live music and festive atmosphere.
The four main attractions in the Ice Village are the Ice Cavern, the Ice Tiki Bar, Santa’s Grotto and Skate Manchester’s Ice Rink.
So if you fancy ice skating under the stars, meeting Santa in his Grotto, supping a frosty Manc-ini in the world’s first Ice Tiki Bar, taking the ultimate ‘cool’ #IceSelfie in a frozen crystal carriage or battling a giant ice dragon in the Ice Cavern, join us in this unique wintery land fast becoming Manchester’s No.1 Christmas destination.
Entrance to the Ice Village is free, but purchased tickets are required for the four separate attractions.
