## About

The region's largest seasonal outdoor open-air ice rink covers over 9,000 square feet of real ice inside a weather-proof tent at Bellevue Downtown Park. Against glittering downtown high-rises and the park's tranquil circular water canal, skaters of all experience levels glide under thousands of twinkling fairy lights accompanied by festive holiday music.

First-time skaters and toddlers can hold onto red balance walker aids to navigate the smooth ice safely. Heated rinkside rest areas, hot chocolate and warm concession treats, and clean public restrooms make outings comfortable for families. Advance online ticket reservations are strongly recommended for weekend and evening sessions.
