Munich Ice Magic 2026: Winter Sparkle and Ice Skating Fun in the Heart of Munich
When Karlsplatz transforms into a sparkling open-air ice arena, the winter season in Munich begins in a particularly festive way. Munich Ice Magic invites you to ice skate outdoors from November 13, 2026, to January 10, 2027, combining physical activity with Christmas lights, Bavarian delicacies, and warm mulled wine.
750 Square Meters of Ice in the Center at Stachus
On the approximately 750 square meter mobile ice surface, visitors glide in circles right in the heart of the city. The backdrop at Karlsplatz with Karlstor, downtown lighting, and urban big-city flair makes Munich Ice Magic a special winter experience. Beginners, families, and experienced skaters find space here for shared laps, small pirouettes, and relaxed hours on the ice.
Four Time Blocks for Every Pace
The ice skating operation runs daily in four time blocks between 10:30 AM and 10:00 PM.

Admission is valid for each time block.
Music, Theme Evenings, and Bavarian Winter Cuisine
Munich Ice Magic offers more than just classic ice skating. Changing music styles and special themed events provide variety in the program.
