Aprés Skate at Somerset House

Nothing says festive fun quite like ice skating at Somerset House. And if you could follow some epic skating with a fantastic feast of alpine fare before channelling your inner Mariah Carey in an after-dinner sing-along that would be amazing right?! Well now you can! Because this year on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights from late November we’ll be offering our brand new Après Skate experience at The Chalet, Jimmy Garcia’s Alpine-inspired chalet-themed restaurant at Somerset House.

Just as Après-ski is more fun than the actual skiing (for a lot of people!) Après-Skate is the perfect place to socialise and recount the spins and tumbles you’ve just showcased on the ice. Or if you want to skip straight to the warmth of The Chalet there’s no need to skate first, it can be Après-office, Après-school run, Après-anything!

For just £75 per person you’ll get to enjoy a welcome glühwein, a delicious 3-course meal featuring our renowned British cheese fondue alongside our very own “Christmas bauble” dessert with a half bottle of wine, and that’s all before the singalong starts!

Whether it’s with office colleagues or lifelong friends this is the perfect place for your Christmas gatherings.

Package includes:

  • Welcome glühwein

  • Half a bottle of house wine

  • 3 course set menu dinner

  • Roaming singer during the meal

  • After dinner Christmas sing-along

£75 per person (inc VAT)

“After the skills and spills on the ice, skaters can come together to debate who was best
while indulging in some delicious food – we’re all fond of fondue right?!
And the revelry will be rounded off with a proper seasonal singalong… what’s not to love?!”
