The Ice Factor listings

Yorks most popular Christmas attraction, the outdoor ice rink,The Ice Factor, returns
this November to its new location at McArthurGlens York Designer Outlet,
celebrating its seventh successive season in the historic city.

Located at the rear of the Designer Outlet, the award-winning Ice Factor promises to be
better than ever this year as the ice rink will become the centre piece for a
Yorkshire Winter Wonderland, encompassing a Christmas market of 20 wooden
chalets and a traditional fun fair with a big wheel, helter-skelter and
chairoplane as well as childrens rides and games stalls all adding to the festive
magic.

As the area undergoes its theatrical transformation, The Ice Factors 900sqm real
ice rink will be turned into a Winter Wonderland village square complete with a
giant 30ft-high Christmas tree in the centre of the rink, and bordered by an
illuminated forest with log cabins and reindeer, a skate hire marquee, a public
viewing area and the heated Ice Bar & Café.

And when youre done with the fun outside, why not pop into the Designer Outlet
and take advantage of over 120 leading designer and high street brands at up to
60 per cent less. And with free and
ample parking, theres no need to go anywhere else in
Yorkshire for your fun and Christmas shopping.

November 2011 until 8th January 2012, and is conveniently located on
the A64/A19 interchange. Tickets for a one-hour session cost £9.50 for adults
