Always check blm.mn/ice-schedule before visiting to confirm ice availability, as the venue has three separate rinks (BIG1, BIG2, BIG3) with varying schedules and availability.
Best time
Visit during weekday morning sessions (Monday-Wednesday 9-10:30am) for smaller crowds and a more relaxed skating experience compared to Sunday evening sessions.
