The ice rink is located in the open area in front of the shopping center entrance. It will be available until January 10, 2021.
X-Madrid is not a traditional shopping center; it is a brand new concept designed to meet new generation customers’ needs. Here only 40% of the area is allocated for retail trade. The remaining 60% is an area where young visitors looking for a good time can get new impressions.
And the new 200 square meters ice rink with real ice will be a great addition to the already wide range of the mall’s entertainment areas. Shopping malls often use synthetic surfaces, which are easier to maintain. Expected that this addition will increase the interest in the shopping center of visitors, many of whom, against the coronavirus pandemic’s backdrop, tend to avoid crowded areas.
Visitors of the mall, who made purchases at any of the X-Madrid stores, cafes, or restaurants for at least 25 euros, will have free access to the ice rink. In that case, they need to show the receipt received at the entrance of the rink. But you can immediately go on ice – in this case, visiting the rink costs 6 euros. In both versions, skates are provided free of charge.
