## About

Located directly inside The Parks Mall at Arlington beneath towering skylights, ICE at The Parks is a full regulation NHL-sized ice arena that offers year-round winter gliding for families across North Texas. Whether escaping a chilly winter drizzle or looking for energetic holiday fun, visitors can step directly onto smooth, freshly resurfaced sheet ice in an energetic, festive shopping atmosphere.

The facility is renowned for being especially welcoming to small children: families can rent 'Bobby the Seal' and 'Tommy the Reindeer' skate aids, giving little ones a sturdy handle to hold or a comfortable seat to be pushed across the ice by parents. Public skating sessions run daily with rental skates available from toddler size 7 through adult 14, an arcade, pro shop, and snack bar serving hot churros and cocoa.
