## About

Set right at the base of Philadelphia's historic City Hall, Dilworth Park transforms into an urban winter playground featuring the Rothman Orthopaedics Ice Rink, the cozy Rothman Cabin, and the whimsical Wintergarden on the Albert M. Greenfield Lawn. Skaters of all skill levels glide across the ice while enjoying panoramic views of Center City's historic architecture. Sled-style skate trainers are available for rent to help young beginners balance.

Adjacent to the ice rink, the open-air Wintergarden features festive wooden arbors, glowing reindeer topiaries, seasonal evergreens, and thousands of twinkling holiday lights. The heated Cabin offers hot cocoa, warm soft pretzels, and seasonal snacks. Direct elevator and ramp connections from the street to City Hall and Suburban Station make the plaza 100% stroller friendly.
