The spectacular ice-skating / musical entertainment show, which is watched by around 3.5 million people every year, will be performed at the Stadthalle 15 times between 6 and 17 January 2010.

The new programme called "Energia" focuses on the topics energy and harmony but is, above all, great entertainment for young and old.

"Holiday On Ice", which has been touring the world since 1943, is performed in 110 cities every year.
