It will get you into the Christmas spirit, we promise! Buy your Ice Skating tickets in advance and use one of the TWO rinks we have this year - Rocky's Rink for the children and the Admiral Rink for the grown ups.
From there why not experience the magnificent views of Swansea on the Big Wheel, and then head on inside to warm yourself up with a nice glass of mulled wine - adults only of course!
If that doesn't get you in the Christmas spirit, then the Oxford Street Christmas Market starts tomorrow!
