Winterlights – Luxembourg City Christmas Markets
The Winterlights festival brings several Christmas markets to Luxembourg's Ville-Haute, from Place d'Armes to Place de la Constitution, until 3 January.
Entry: €5 (18+), €4 (under 18); 10-entry book €45 / €36. Skate hire €3.50, helmet €2, skating aid €5 per hour.
At Kockelscheuer, on the forest edge south of the capital, this rink is open to the public from mid-September to mid-April, while ice hockey and figure skating clubs train alongside. During hockey matches public skating carries on on the second rink. Skates can be hired in sizes 24 to 50, and helmets and skating aids are available for children. Through the season there are 'Disco On Ice' DJ nights at the normal price. Tickets are sold only at on-site machines, nearly all card-only. Tip: park for free at the Kockelscheuer P+R and come late on a weekday afternoon, when it is quieter.
