Elfin Trail and Ice Experience return to Kelvingrove this December

Scottish events company itison has announced this year's Christmas shows, with Elfingrove and the Ice Experience returning to Kelvingrove this December.

A multi-million-pound investment is set to create the Elfin Trail by the River Elfin, along with the country’s largest ice rink.

The Elfin Trail will take guests on a 60-minute journey along the River Elfin through Kelvingrove park to see seven magical creatures brought to life by a team of sound, lighting and set designers, before reaching the Kingdom of Elfingrove and street food village.

The Ice Experience meanwhile, lets customers skate beneath a see-through roof, set against a festive-ly lit Kelvingrove Museum.

The events should create more than 200 jobs during the run from 2 until 24 December.

Oli Norman, chief executive of itison and Elfingrove director, said: “From Rockefeller Centre in New York to Ice World in Vienna, I’ve skated some of the world’s most iconic rinks - to create our own at Kelvingrove Museum to rival those great cities is a real honour.”

“With the Elfin Trail we’ve created a truly magical winter walk of wonder in an area of Kelvingrove Park that takes you down to the River Kelvin - Elfin! - f you enjoy GlasGLOW you’re going to love the Elfin Trail.”

Early bird tickets will go on sale from 6 October.

The show will also see the return of the Elfingrove Legacy Fund - a community engagement initiative which sees thousands of tickets donated to families who need it most and funds a capital project in the city.
