About this adventure
Downtown Mesa's Merry Main Street celebrates the holidays with a vibrant street festival anchored by the Winter Wonderland Ice Rink at the Plaza at Mesa City Center. Families can lace up skates to glide across real ice beneath palm trees and sparkling light canopy, marvel at the four-story musical Christmas tree, and enjoy free visits with Santa Claus. Kids can participate in the fun 'Gnome on the Roam' scavenger hunt throughout downtown shops and ride the Santa Express light rail train. Skaters of all experience levels are welcome, with rental skates included in ticket fees and helpful skate-assist trainers available for little ones learning to balance. Sensory-friendly skating sessions with softened music and lights take place on select Mondays.
