## About

Skate Westgate brings an open-air authentic ice skating experience to the West Valley at Fountain Park in Glendale's Westgate Entertainment District. Skaters glide across real ice surrounded by swaying palm trees wrapped in twinkling holiday lights and the district's dancing water fountains, creating a quintessential desert holiday scene.

Sessions run in 45-minute public blocks on a first-come, first-served basis with on-site ticket sales. Toddlers can strap on beginner-friendly double-bladed rental skates (sizes 9T–12T), and skate assist aids help youngsters glide with confidence. The surrounding pedestrian plaza offers stroller parking, dining terraces, and family-friendly splash fountain walks.
