November 29th
The ice rink will officially open on Saturday, November 29, 2025, starting at 6:30 PM!
The eleventh season of Ice Park brings an even richer program and an unforgettable winter fairy tale in the very heart of Zagreb! The grand opening on 29 November will be marked by a spectacular performance of the baller The Nutcracker on Ice, the timeless work of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky , directed by Anja Maksić Japundžić and choreographed by Sandra Pavičić.
This enchanting story about a young girl, the Nutcracker, and the magical Land of Sweets will come to life on ice through a combination of top-level artistic skating, live vocal performances, and lavish stage design. The ice stage will feature Karlo Požgajčić as the Nutcracker, Vanda Winter as the Snow Queen, and the award-winning South African skating pair Johann Wilkinson and Julia Mauder in the roles of the Sugar Plum Fairy, Uncle Drosselmeyer, and the Prince.
A special atmosphere will be created by the a cappella group Voxford, performing the most beloved Christmas songs live, while the opening ceremony will once again be hosted by Iva Šulentić. The sumptuous visual concept is created by Dženisa Pecotić, Tihana Cizelj, and the production is by Katapult promocija.
Encore performances of The Nutcracker on Ice will take place on 30 November and on 8, 15, and 22 December at 6:30 PM.
Alongside daily skating from 10 AM to 11 PM, live music, the attractive weekend Après-Ski zone, and special programs for St. Nicholas Day, Christmas Eve, and New Year’s Eve, Ice Park once again remains the center of Zagreb’s Advent magic and a favorite winter gathering place for locals and visitors alike.
