BOSCOMBE'S COOLEST ATTRACTION?

On the day the consultation for the Kings Park Ice Rink closes we find we will have an opportunity to skate sooner than we thought!

Planning permission for Winter’s most exciting & glamorous activities was confirmed for Boscombe this week; to provide an open air ice rink in Boscombe precinct from Saturday 22nd November 2008 until Sunday 22nd February 2009.

The Opera House and partners have been working closely with Council officers over the last two months to bring this unique ice rink to the Boscombe residents and visitors this Winter.

Opera House boss, Ester Gill, who said
“The Opera House want to do our bit to bring some festive cheer to Boscombe Precinct and would love to see an ice rink outide every year.”

Chris Jenkins of TLM, who this week won the British Chamber of Commerce Most Promising New Business award said.
“Our Council Officers have been brilliant. To turn around a project like this in such a short space of time is a great demonstration of what can be achieved when everyone works together. There are a few things to finalise with the Ice contractor, all being well we will have an ice rink this Winter”

Planning permission was requested for Boscombe's own real ice rink, to run from Saturday 22nd November. Customers can listen to music as they glide around the ice, have lunch in one of Boscombe’s many cafes and restaurants and shop, shop, shop; encouraging visitors to bring family and friends and be part of Boscombe’s unique experience.

This is simply Boscombe’s coolest attraction this Winter and the management would like to say a special thank you to Boscombe’s Neighbourhood management team who have made this project possible.

Ticket will available on www.OperaHouse.co.uk or from the venue box office.
