When you hire an ice rink, maximising visitor numbers makes all the difference to your ROI. Here at GL, we can weatherproof your rink with some of the widest marquees in the UK, making it an attractive destination, rain or shine.
At widths of 20m to 30m, our marquees offer great access around the ice and an elevated guest experience. We can add a bespoke mix of smaller pagodas to create spaces for skate hire, spectators and bars, with heating and lighting to keep everyone comfortable.
Even better, we can map your guests’ journey through your event using virtual fly-throughs, putting you right inside your venue, before it’s even built.

Open-air ice rinks full of real opportunities
If you’re looking to create a traditional open-air ice rink, adding a hand-picked selection of smaller structures and pagodas can turn it into a real destination, where guests stay longer and spend more.
A custom mix of smaller structures means you can elevate your temporary ice rink with dedicated skate hire stations, retail kiosks and covered viewing areas, bring in a bar or even provide spaces for local caterers.
We’ll help you create a great guest experience with comfortable heating and festive lighting, and we can design your entire event space and use virtual fly-throughs to walk you through your event space, before set-up starts.

Laser floor levelling for quality ice rinks
Whenever you hire an ice rink, establishing a completely level floor is essential. Even slight changes in level can cause ice to freeze unevenly, demanding more power and costing more money to stay smooth, solid and skate-ready.
Our expert team uses laser levelling, a perimeter ring beam and a robust metal substructure to provide a totally flat base, collaborating with specialist ice rink suppliers to create exactly the foundation your rink needs – whatever your event location.
