About this adventure

The Ice Centre at the Promenade in Westminster, run by Hyland Hills Park and Recreation District, holds public skating sessions through the year, and for the winter season its light display is back on during public sessions, so skaters circle the ice under a holiday light show. Session times change from day to day and some days have no public session, so check the rink's public skating schedule before you go; lower-priced Cheap Skate sessions run at set times. Skates and skate aids can be rented, and lockers cost 50 cents. The admission and rental windows open 30 minutes before each session starts. Helmets are not available to rent but are recommended, so bring one for young skaters. Children 4 and under skate for $2 with a paying adult, and holders of a City of Westminster or Hyland Hills discount card pay a reduced rate. The rink also hosts a free Holiday Figure Skating Exhibition in December.
