The world’s largest indoor ice rink is back
Who can say they’ve skated at least once in their life… at the Grand Palais? This magnificent building opens the doors to its ice palace for several weeks… Open daily, the Grand Palais des Glaces invites you to glide across the ice from December 12 through January 6,
And after skating around a giant disco ball last year, this year visitors will glide around an XXL moon all evening long. Suspended beneath the glass roof, it lends the palace a poetic atmosphere worthy of the most beautiful Christmas stories. As every year, a DJ set will keep both seasoned skaters and beginners entertained all evening long! This year’s set design was entrusted to Cathy Guetta, the queen of the night, who has created a veritable dance floor on ice.
And to make the evening even more special, a small gourmet village will be set up around the rink so you can refuel after your skate… On the menu: crêpes, waffles, hot chocolate, and even a raclette restaurant set up on the clock balcony.

Don’t have skates? No worries! You can always rent them on-site (sizes range from 25 to 50). The rental fee is included in the admission ticket! See you in a few days at the Grand Palais des Glaces for one of the most exceptional winter events in the capital.
