News & Events > Holiday Activities
The christmas holidays are nearly here. And even with all the excitement of St Nick's imminent visit there'll still be time that needs to be filled. So why not fill it with us. Let’s face it, hanging about on street corners isn’t half as much fun as hanging off the walls at the Edinburgh International Climbing Arena. And we've got the perfect way for you to get the most out of your school holidays at the world's largest indoor climbing arena.
Please see below for the activity dates.

Ascenders
The Ascenders is our daily camp where you'll get an introduction to the basic rope work and safety skills you'll need to tackle our climbing walls and bouldering facilities. During your session you'll also have the chance to try out some of our other activities such as abseiling or even climbing the 20m wire ladders- quite a scary prospect!
Pebbles
Pebbles sessions are open to kids aged from 5 to 7 years. Each session consists of 1 hour climbing based activity in the arena, supervised by an EICA coach and soft play assistant, followed by 30 minutes of soft play access in Scrambles.
Aerial Assault
Our Aerial Assault Course is the ultimate adrenaline rush, a truly unique experience where you, quite literally, let it all hang out 100ft from the ground. The ride begins with a death-defying twisted zip slide and ends with a series of increasingly formidable obstacles. During the school holidays the Aerial Assault opening times will be extended to 12.00 - 16.00 Monday to Friday, so there are even more opportunities to get your adrenaline rush.
