Ice Skating in Lake Havasu

The calendar may still say it's fall, but the Resort wants to make it feel like winter. Last weekend, they opened up their ice skating rink to the public. It costs just $15 per adult (ages 13 and up), $13 per kid ages six to 12, and $8 per child aged five or younger for one hour on the ice. That price includes skate rental as well.

This makes a fun evening to bring out-of-town guests to during the holidays. But why wait for guests? Head over to the London Bridge Resort anytime between now and January 5th, 2025 to enjoy some ice skating in the desert.

Lake Havasu Festival of Lights

Now, one of the most highly anticipated events to kick off the Christmas season is the Festival of Lights. That always starts on the day after Thanksgiving. More than a half a million lights brighten the English Village and the area under the London Bridge. It costs nothing to take a stroll along the lake. And for a truly unique perspective, take your boat out for a tour along the Bridgewater Channel after dark. Just make sure to obey all laws of the lake while doing so.
