Extra skating sessions for Sure customers

Within minutes of Sure customers being offered half-price skating sessions at this December’s Sure Skate, a number of the sessions had sold out.

Sure sent text messages to its customers earlier today offering them the chance to book two half-price tickets for one of nine different Sure Skater sessions on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays between 12th December and 4th January.

“We were overwhelmed by the response and a number of the sessions were quickly sold out so we have taken the decision to add five extra sessions where Sure customers can also use a unique code to order their half-price tickets,” said Sure’s chief executive Eddie Saints.

Sure is bringing Kyran Bracken’s Ice Rink to Market Square for four weeks over Christmas and New Year. Tickets went on sale for all 195 public skating sessions, which can each take 100 skaters, at the start of October and 23 sessions have also already sold out.

“We are delighted that Guernsey has been so enthusiastic about this wonderful event. It’s going to bring a little bit of magic to the island and we can’t wait to share this experience with the community,” said Mr Saints.

Tickets can be booked in advance at http://www.sureskate.com/ but will also be available to purchase at Sure Skate on the day. The extra Sure Skater sessions are at 7.40pm on Saturday 12th December, 5pm on Tuesday 22nd December, 7.40pm on Tuesday 29th December, 3.40pm on Saturday 2nd January and 7.40pm on Monday 4th January and anyone who has already booked for these sessions will be unaffected. Sure customers need to use their unique code in order to book their half price tickets.
