Skate and Scare!

Castle and Marketplace

Get your skates on at Castle Quarter this October and celebrate Halloween together with a free spooktacular Skate and Scare event.

On Thursday 30th October, from 10am to 4pm, White Lion Square in the shopping centre (located outside Boots on the ground floor) will become home to a ghostly roller-skating rink, complete with Halloween-themed music, lighting, decorations and staff dressed up in frightfully fabulous costumes.

Skaters will enjoy 20-minute sessions. All equipment and safety gear will be provided, plus there will be a prize for the person who skates in the best spooky Halloween costume.

Sessions are free, but skaters are invited to make donations for The Hamlet charity, which provides local support for children, young people and adults with disabilities and complex health needs. On the day, members of The Hamlet team will be there to talk about their amazing work.
