💬 What Visitors Say

💡Purchase timed tickets online in advance and arrive 1 hour before your ticket time to minimize wait times. Even with a timed ticket, expect a queue—arriving at 2pm for a 3pm ticket is recommended.
🕐Visit on weekdays rather than weekends or holidays to avoid long lines and experience the rink less crowded. Peak season (holidays) requires extra patience and planning.
💬Locker rental is $7 and use your phone for digital locker access, which is faster than the alternative. Have free wifi available or plan accordingly to avoid delays when securing your locker.
💬Bring your own skates if possible to save on rental fees. The rink allows unlimited skating time (unlike Bryant Park's 1-hour limit), so bringing quality skates enhances the experience.
💡Wollman Rink is NYC's largest skating rink with no time restrictions, making it ideal for families. Staff are friendly and helpful, but arrive early to secure available lockers and avoid difficulty finding one during peak times.
