It’s not really Christmas till you’ve been on the Christmas Wheel.

This year the wheel is in Princes Street Gardens alongside the Scott Monument as usual.

Open from 10 a.m. each day in the heart of the city centre, the observational Big Wheel has thirty-six enclosed, weather-proof pods, each seating six people and showing unrivalled views of Edinburgh. As the pod door closes, you’ll hear a short historical tour of the view and the City. One ride on the Big Wheel won’t be enough! But we have a family ticket for this attraction (or the ice skating if that is more your thing) on offer in our competition.

Edinburgh’s Christmas is organised by Underbelly who are well-known in Edinburgh for the purple upside down cow during the Festival. This year they are putting on a huge variety of attractions for you and yours across St Andrew Square, Princes Street Gardens and on the Royal Mile.  Enter our competition here to win a family ticket for the Christmas Wheel or for a family to go ice-skating.

Enter by 17 December 2015 at 12 noon to win!

Admission is on a first come, first served basis, so please allow extra time if you wish to attend on busy days.
