Get your skates on. The city’s annual North Pole Festival will this year be backed by the Cambridge Independent.

The North Pole’s cosy Alpine Lodge bar will also be serving up drinks from warming Glühwein to chilled beer.

There will be a festive selection of authentic pop-up food stalls, selling tasty treats from crepes to churros and no winter festival is complete without an authentic German Swing Grill.

The festival will open daily from November 17 to January 8, 2018 and will celebrate the traditions and the entertainments that make the Christmas and new year season so special.
