## About

Located on the lower level of the historic Lloyd Center mall in Northeast Portland, Lloyd Center Ice Rink is an iconic Oregon landmark famous as the training rink of Olympic figure skater Tonya Harding. Sheltered beneath a dramatic glass ceiling atrium, the indoor rink offers daily year-round public skating sessions with vibrant background pop music, dedicated beginner ice time, and toddler walker skate trainers (sturdy plastic gliding buckets) that give little ones steady balance on the ice. Families can rent hockey or figure skates ranging from toddler size 8 up to adult sizes, or sign up for weekend introductory learn-to-skate group classes taught by certified coaches.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Excellent stroller accessibility throughout the mall concourse with elevator access down to the rink level and wide carpeted viewing corridors surrounding the glass rink railing.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Lloyd Center offers family restrooms with baby changing stations adjacent to the rink and ample padded bench seating around the rink perimeter.
• Age Suitability: Welcomes skaters of all ages, from toddlers age 2 using glider buckets to grandparents enjoying a family skate.
• Sensory Tips: Arena music is lively but kept at a family-friendly volume; the ice temperature hovers around 50°F so warm coats, mittens, and warm socks are recommended.
