Chris Hone, chief operating officer at Doncaster Culture and Leisure Trust, which manages the Dome, said: “Christmas at the Dome is always a great occasion and while our Lagoons swimming area is closed this year for an exciting refurbishment, there are so many other fun-filled festive options for families to enjoy, including wheelchair accessible sessions.

“Our ice parties are so popular and loved by our customers who come back year after year so we can’t wait to get the party underway this Christmas and for as many people as possible to join us!”

The Cycle Track, at the Dome, will also be lit up on Monday 23 December with the Glow ride event between 5pm-7pm and only £3 per person. Suitable for all the family with a range of balance, junior, accessible and adult bikes and glow sticks are included.
