Best time
Friday night sessions (7-10 PM or 8-10 PM) are the classic social skating times at this rink and are popular for a reason—great atmosphere and music. Plan accordingly if you prefer a lively crowd or want to avoid peak times.
Visitor tip
The venue lacks strong air conditioning—bring light layers you can remove if it gets hot, especially during busy sessions. A few fans are available but may not cool the space adequately on warm days.
Visitor tip
Staff are friendly and helpful, and the concession food (chicken fingers and fries are highly rated) is available for parties. The rink is very family-friendly and affordable, making it a great value option for kids' birthday parties and casual family outings.
