What the synthetic ice rink is and how it works
Eco-friendly synthetic ice rink hire lets people skate anywhere, any time of year: the surface is made of high-quality plastic panels that mimic ice, and you skate on ordinary blade skates with a very realistic glide.
- Modular panels are laid out to form the rink.
- Skaters glide just as they would on a traditional ice rink.
- It needs no electricity, water, refrigeration or cold weather.
- Barriers, lighting, music and themed decoration can be added.
Synthetic ice rink for corporate events and conventions
A synthetic ice rink at a corporate event surprises everyone, because nobody expects to skate in a conference venue, a hotel garden or the middle of summer. Since it needs no water, cold or refrigeration, it can be installed indoors or outdoors on a flat, stable surface, and it becomes the meeting point of the day.
- Team building: simple team challenges on skates, solved amid plenty of laughter.
- Christmas dinners and parties: a skating rink that gives the celebration a wintry feel.
- Product launches: an unusual space to unveil something new and create social media content.
- Family days: staff and children skating together, adults and kids alike.
It is an eco-friendly, sustainable option that fits the responsibility policies of many companies. We agree the space and access with you, assemble the modular panels and leave the surface ready before opening. We take the corporate skating rink to Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia and anywhere in the country, so your corporate event has a plan nobody forgets.
Synthetic ice rink specifications and requirements
- Minimum space: from 100 m² (for example, 10 x 10 m), depending on the expected number of skaters.
- Surface: flat and stable, indoors or outdoors.
- Power: only if lighting or music is added.
- Outdoors: suitable, although cover is recommended in heavy rain.
- Skates: ordinary blade skates.
These are the synthetic skating rink requirements for planning the space.
Synthetic skating rink for shopping centres and seasonal campaigns
For a shopping centre, a synthetic skating rink is an effective way to attract footfall and keep visitors for longer. Families come to skate, children ask to go again and parents take the chance to stroll around the rest of the centre. Because it works all year round, it does not depend on Christmas: it can also run in summer, during school holidays or as part of special campaigns.
- Christmas and Epiphany: the classic winter feel in the central plaza or the outdoor car park.
- Summer: skating in the heat is an original draw that nobody expects.
- Promotional campaigns: the rink as a prize or an activity linked to a purchase or a prize draw.
- For all ages: children, teenagers and adults skate with standard blade skates.
The surface is built from modular panels indoors or outdoors, and outdoors a cover is advisable in heavy rain. Around 80% of our events take place outside Barcelona, in cities such as Madrid, Valencia, Seville, Zaragoza or Vigo, so we bring the eco-friendly ice rink wherever your shopping centre and your next seasonal campaign are.

Ice-Free Skating Rink Hire for Councils and Family Days
Skate all year round
An ice-free skating rink solves an organiser's biggest worries: nothing needs cooling, nothing drips and it goes wherever you need it. That is why local councils schedule it in squares, sports centres and winter festivals with complete peace of mind. Skating no longer depends on the weather and becomes the highlight of the town's calendar.
At a corporate family day, the rink brings employees and their families together in an activity everyone can try, with décor that matches your brand. It also works for schools and end-of-year parties, and it surprises as a summer skating experience in shopping centres and festivals. We work from Barcelona and install across Spain, adapting the size to the number of skaters.
- Councils and winter festivals: a rink for the main square that brings the town centre to life all season.
- Corporate family days: employees, children and grandparents skating together in a setting decorated with your branding.
- Schools and end-of-term events: a different sporting activity for the playground that pupils will remember.
- Summer events and festivals: open-air skating with no cold or water, an idea that really stands out.

Branding the synthetic ice rink
A 10 x 6 metre rink lets you create a complete brand atmosphere. On the custom synthetic ice rink for events your logo goes on the barriers, the entrance and the decor, so every skater moves within your visual universe.
Barriers in banner or PVC that resist knocks and weather; smooth areas in vinyl. We also make an entrance arch, opening-hours signs or a photocall. Being eco-friendly and suitable indoors and outdoors, it fits Christmas markets or shopping centres. You send your artwork or we create it in a couple of days; trusted suppliers print and our team sets it up.
Everything travels in plastic film and arrives as good as new. Perfect for a Christmas campaign with a skating rink.
Synthetic ice rink hire price
What you pay to hire a synthetic ice rink depends on the venue, how long the event runs, the size of the surface and the extras (lighting, music, decoration). When we travel from Barcelona, the mileage is added to the quote, which happens a lot: about 80% of our events take place in other cities such as Madrid, Valencia, Seville, Zaragoza or Vigo. Request a quote with no obligation.
Synthetic ice rink set-up and installation
We handle skating rink delivery and installation, on-site assistance and dismantling, anywhere in the country. We agree the space and access with you, lay the modular panels and check the surface is right before opening. Afterwards, we take everything away and leave the space in perfect condition.
Booking the synthetic ice rink
When you book the synthetic ice rink, that date is reserved exclusively for you. All we need is:
- An up-front payment of 50% of the total, with invoice.
- Set-up and start date and time, the name and phone number of whoever will meet us, the exact address and tax details.
If it rains at an outdoor event, or the whole event is called off, we reimburse 100% of what you booked.
