About this adventure

The centerpiece of downtown Pittsburgh's holiday scene, The UPMC Rink at PPG Place is a magical outdoor ice skating rink encircling a 65-foot illuminated Christmas tree. Families skate amidst the soaring glass spires of Philip Johnson's PPG castle, listening to classic holiday music. Skate aids (plastic penguins) are available for young children, and heated viewing zones overlook the ice. Family Experience & Accessibility: • Stroller Accessibility: Street-level plaza with wide ramps around the rink perimeter. • Nursing & Rest Spots: Indoor food court inside PPG Place offers restrooms with baby changing counters. • Age Suitability: All ages (skating for ages 2+). • Sensory Tips: Whimsical urban fairytale setting with dazzling tree reflections on ice.
