Group Skate Bookings

Yes! For your safety, helmets are mandatory for all skaters. A bike or ski helmet with a chin strap works perfectly—no need for anything fancy, just secure and snug!

There’s no minimum age—everyone’s welcome! Just remember, all skaters must wear skates on the ice, and little ones should be supervised by an adult at all times.

To keep the ice safe and smooth for everyone, we schedule regular maintenance (a.k.a. floods!). Don’t worry—we’ll post and announce flood times so you know when to take a break.

Yes! Personal skate aids are welcome on the ice. If it helps you (or your little one) stay upright and smiling, bring it along!

Yes! Strollers are welcome, but children must be securely strapped in and wearing a helmet. Our friendly Ice Patrol team will assist with Stroller Crossing to ensure a safe experience. Please note: stroller wheels may need to be cleaned before entering the ice, especially during the winter months.

For everyone’s safety, carrying children on the ice isn’t allowed. We want your little ones to enjoy the ice safely—strollers or skate aids are a great option!

For safety reasons, only those wearing skates are allowed on the ice. If you're not skating, feel free to cheer from the sidelines—we love a good audience! 🎉

To keep things safe and fun for everyone, sticks, pucks, and ringette rings aren’t allowed during Public Skating. It’s all about smooth gliding, not slap shots!

Absolutely! Figure skates are welcome. Just keep in mind that jumps and spins aren’t permitted during Public Skating—our goal is a safe and smooth experience for everyone.

Absolutely! Wheelchairs are welcome and can access the ice via our accessible entrance. All participants must wear a helmet while on the ice. Our staff will assist with cleaning the wheels to ensure they’re ready for a safe glide.

Yes! We’d love to host your group. All bookings, including party packages, require at least 3 weeks’ notice. Reserve your Group Skate today to lock in your date!

While individual registration isn’t required, we do ask for the total number in your group so we can prepare accordingly.

Guest limits may vary based on the package or space you book. For the best fit, feel free to contact us—we’re happy to confirm availability and capacity.

Skating instructors are not included, and lessons are not permitted during Public Skating sessions to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

Unless you’ve booked private ice, all group bookings take place during Public Skating sessions, where the ice is shared with other guests.

You’re welcome to arrive up to 30 minutes before your booking to set up, as long as the space is available. Please check with our staff to confirm your setup time.

Access to a fridge may be available depending on your package and space booking. Please contact our staff directly to confirm availability.

You're welcome to bring your own decorations—just keep in mind that some restrictions apply. Please note that staff are not available to assist with setup or cleanup.

You're welcome to bring your own food, non-alcoholic drinks, and decorations! Please note that items like candles, helium balloons, confetti, glitter, open flames, and alcohol are not permitted.

Hungry? Food’s not included, but feel free to bring your own or order in!

Want to add a little flair? We’ve got a few décor add-ons available—just ask what’s in stock when you book!

Group bookings require one full payment at the time of reservation. Thanks for keeping it simple!

This wording provides flexibility based on the booking level—especially since we generally don’t charge a cancellation fee for Bronze bookings as payment isn’t taken until the end.

Yes! Helmets and skates are available to rent on a first-come, first-served basis—come early for the best selection.

We’ve got rentals, but sizes can run out on busy days—if you’ve got your own skates, bring ’em just in case!
