Sustainable driving pleasure at the Duisburg Christmas market
This year, a special innovation awaits you at the Duisburg Christmas market: instead of a classic ice rink, there will be a modern plastic rink for the first time. It stands for sustainability, saves valuable energy and protects the environment – without sacrificing the usual fun of ice skating. Look forward to pure skating pleasure with a clear conscience!
