It's that magical time of year again when Christmas decorations cover the streets and buildings, fairy lights sparkle and the winter chill just makes you want to curl up in front of the fireplace. But don't get too comfortable; the best Christmas event is back again to fill our cold winter days with thrills and magical delights. This year bigger and better than ever with some exciting new features! 

As always, Winter Wonderland plays host to the Lycamobile Ice Rink. Take your family and friends, or even a date to spend a lovely day ice skating in the UK's largest ice rink. Afterwards you can take a rest to warm up with some hot chocolate or mulled wine at one of the fantastic stalls.

You can also spend the day getting lost in an enchanting new area, the Arctic Circle. Here you'll find the Magical Ice Kingdom, bigger than ever, a breathtaking world made entirely of ice and snow. Wander through the Medieval Village, the Giants' Forest and marvel at the Ice Castle. For those of you with families, make sure you don't miss Santa's Land and watch your little one's delight at meeting Santa and all his helpers!

It wouldn't be Christmas without a spectacle; Zippos Christmas Circus offers a traditional show of family fun during the day. Are you one of the late night goers? Then don't miss Zippos Cirque Berserk! This evening show is an exhilarating contemporary circus with exciting surprises.

Of course, there will be the usual thrills and spills of rollercoasters and rides. For example the famous 60-metre high Giant Observation Wheel for a spectacular 360 panoramic view of Winter Wonderland and all of London! Winter Wonderland is the biggest, must visit Christmas event. With something for everyone, whether it's family fun, or late night Christmas entertainment with mates, make sure you head down.

Winter Wonder runs from 22nd November 2013 to 5th January 2014 (except Christmas Day), opening from 10am to 10pm.
