Though ice rinks are not common in Egypt, there are still quite a few. As far as outings go, few things represent fun winter vibes more than ice skating!

What better way to enjoy the holiday than attending a Christmas concert? Listening to classic songs, carols, or Christmas-inspired originals is a great family-friendly way to celebrate! You could catch one of the Christmas concerts performed by students for parents in schools if that applies to you, or go to a professional performance like one of the upcoming Christmas Concerts at the Cairo Opera House!

Visit An Amusement Park

Nothing says ‘fun’ quite like an amusement park. This holiday season, families can take a day trip to try out fun rides or hit the arcade for a great bonding experience. Zed Park, for one, is hosting ‘A Winter Fest’ for a winter-themed park so guests can experience the Christmas spirit!
