Hide AdThe Pleasure Beach Arena has played host to the Blackpool Ice Skating Festival for over 50 years, and has seen thousands of talented skaters showcase their skills, with many going on to represent their country at international level.
The event takes place at the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Arena, the world’s oldest purpose built ice theatre, which opened in 1937 and was designed by noted architect Joseph Emberton.
The Arena has also been home to Blackpool Pleasure Beach’s legendary ice show, Hot Ice since it first opened.
This year’s production, Rapture, is the show’s 85th year and will feature an international cast, including some of the world’s best skaters, when it opens on July 7.
