People have already been wrapping up warm and pulling on their skates to enjoy the rink in the open-air courtyard, surrounded by twinkling lights and next to the huge Christmas tree.
Made of synthetic Glice, the rink is open for people of all ages and skating levels.
Sessions take place throughout December. Each one lasts for 45 minutes and tickets include free skate hire.
