Tickets are on sale now, online only, with adult access from 27 euros.<\/p>\n<h2>A Christmas tradition under the glass roof<\/h2>\n<p>Set inside the building built for the 1900 Universal Exhibition, the rink turns the nave of the Grand Palais into a vast covered ice surface with a night-time atmosphere. Three daily sessions are planned: 10:00\u201313:00, 14:00\u201319:00 and a nocturne from 20:00 to 02:00 that turns the monument into a disco on ice. Children under 14 must be accompanied during daytime sessions, and under-16s at night.<\/p>\n<h2>Tickets and conditions<\/h2>\n<p>Adult tickets cost 27 euros in the morning, 32 in the afternoon and 39 for the nocturne; children pay 15 and 18 euros; visitors aged 65 and over, 22 and 26. Skate rental and access to the children&#8217;s area are included. Gloves are mandatory on the ice. The Premium ticket (standard price plus 50 euros) adds a dedicated entrance and skate collection in a private lounge.<\/p>\n<h2>What an ice rink of this size takes<\/h2>\n<p>Keeping thousands of square metres of real ice in perfect condition for weeks calls for a correctly sized refrigeration plant, frequent resurfacing passes and constant temperature control. Napapiri has applied that same standard since 1993 to its real-ice rinks, mobile and permanent, for municipalities, event organisers and recreational and sports facilities worldwide, with installation and technical support included.
