Best time
Public Skate sessions run Monday-Friday 9:30am-11am only, with a seasonal closure from February 16 through May 1, then again from May 25 onward. Plan your visits accordingly during the active season.
Visitor tip
Bundle up with extra warm layers, thick socks, and gloves - reviewers note the rink runs cold and has a somewhat darker atmosphere typical of older wooden arenas. The heating helps, but personal warmth gear is essential.
Visitor tip
Arrive early to secure parking, as reviewers mention parking can get crowded, particularly during busier times. The arena has plenty of it, but spaces fill up.
