A large 80’x40’ synthetic ice rink will be set up on the roof offering a much more environmentally friendly alternative to real ice. You can enjoy the feeling of skating outdoors. There will also be specialty Zone nights where you can skate to music provided by The Zone!
Entry is via the stairs at the Gap entrance to the Centre, capacity of the rink is 40 skaters per hour and hourly skating passes will be available at the Mayfair Concierge Desk.
Skating is free for everyone and there will be many prizes to give away too! If you don’t own skates, a limited supply of rentals will be available on site for $5 a pair, and all rental funds are in support of The Land Conservancy (TLC) and the Victoria SPCA. Children under 15 are required to bring and wear their own helmets.
