Skating activities in New York City

  1. A

    Kate Wollman Rink

    The rink was closed during the 2011–2012 season due to construction on the Lakeside Center project (26 acres of parkland are being repurposed) and is scheduled to reopen as a year-round ice-skating facility in the 2012–2013 season. For details see the website.

    Lola Staar’s Dreamland Roller Rink

    Lola Staar’s Dreamland Roller Rink is set inside the landmarked Childs building – a gorgeously unrenovated art-deco masterpiece from 1923 (the one Sandra Bullock tried to save in Two Weeks Notice). The rink opens on a semi-permanent basis from April to October.

  4. Ice Skating & Hockey

    At Chelsea Piers, there are two year-round rinks. Schedules vary, generally 1:30pm to 4pm or 5pm daily. Open hockey hours are limited, usually weekday lunchtimes only ($35, goaltenders play for free). No checking!

    Blades West

    Renting is far less common than it was back in the 1990s, but you can rent in-line skates all year at Blades West.
