Ice Skating
We offer free ice skating in 14 parks, at 20 rinks and designated lagoons citywide. Staffed warming shelters for skate rentals and concessions are offered through Thursday, February 12. If ice conditions allow, rinks and lagoons may remain open and maintenance may continue beyond this date.
Opening an ice rink or lagoon for skating involves careful assessment. Always check the status online or call the Parks office before skating. Each rink and lagoon's status is listed and updated promptly. Rinks and lagoons will close if meltwater is visible to prevent extended closures from damaged ice. See Declaring a Rink or Lagoon as Open for more information.
A big thank you to our many volunteers and the Adopt Ice Partnership!
