Retroskate
RetroSkate on Great Yarmouth seafront is a fun, all year round indoor roller skating venue where all the family can get their skates on and have a great time! General skate sessions offer a mix of music, fun and games aimed at all abilities. Or come when the disco and UV lights are on, for exciting weekly Roller Discos. With the main rink having a large spectating area, mini rink and under 3's soft play area, there is somewhere for everyone to enjoy.
A wide variety of tuition is available for all levels to learn and improve skating skills. Our roller skating parties are also very popular and start from just £5 per person! Regular theme nights are held throughout the year for fancy dress madness! Café Retro is open at all general skate sessions offering a wide choice of food, snacks and drinks. We also have the Retro skate shop which stocks a wide range of skates, spares, clothing and accessories.
