Whispering Angel is set to transform Somerset House's Ice Rink this Christmas
Whispering Angel introduces an exciting twist to Somerset House's renowned ice rink, set to make its grand return to the city this November.
Let's face it - everyone knows that the festivities really get going in London when Somerset House's beautiful ice rink opens. This year, in collaboration with Chateau d’Esclans, the creator of Whispering Angel, the courtyard transforms into a winter wonderland, blending the joy of Christmas ice skating with the elegance of rosé. The Whispering Angel Skate Lounge, enveloped in shades of pink and retro skate decorations, is the ideal spot to unwind after a lovely skate and will offer an array of hot and cold rosé-based cocktails, including the seasonal favourite, Mulled Whispering Angel. Yes, we can't wait to try it too!
The Skate Lounge by Whispering Angel unveils a special cocktail menu. If you're looking for a touch of bitterness, the Rosé Negroni awaits, while the Whispering Angel Woo Woo will be bursting with flavours. And, back by popular demand, Skate Lates is making a return. As the sun sets, Skate Lates with Rock Angel amps up the experience with curated nights featuring contemporary DJs and artists like Pxssy Palace and RAW SILK.
Start your festive season in style with a much-loved skate and raise a glass with Whispering Angel. Skate at Somerset House with Switzerland Tourism opens on 15 November 2023.
Date: 15 November 2023 - 14 January 2024. Location: Somerset House, Strand, London WC2R 1LA.Price: £10-£25 for adults / £8-£13 for children. Book now.
