Most Bay Area Holiday Ice Rinks Will Not Open This Year

Sadly,  most of th e Bay Area’s outdoor ice skating rinks
for holiday skating  won’t be opening this year.

• Many Bay Area seasonal ice rinks have announced that they won’t be opening due to the ongoing pandemic. Operators note everyone’s health and safety are paramount, plus, social distancing requirements and reduced capacities would make their businesses unprofitable.

• However, there are two rinks that will be open this season*. If you don't mind a mini road trip, Santa Cruz’s Boardwalk Holiday Ice Skating Rink will be open this year, November 14, 2020 – January 3, 2021. Also, heading to the far East Bay, Brentwood on Ice returns November 20.

        *Masks and Covid-19 social distancing required.
