Description

The most famous ice-skating rink in the City (if not the world) reopens for the 2024–2025 fall and winter season. There’s nothing quite like a spin on the ice here, with immense skyscrapers looming overhead; the famous Christmas tree and golden statue of Prometheus as your backdrop; and tons of Christmas lights and decorations to get you in the holiday spirit. Ticket options include general admission, VIP skating, season passes and rink-side chalets. There are also private and group lessons available. Note: because of the rink’s popularity, crowds tend to swell closer to the holidays and wait times will likely be longer.
