Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- Purchase tickets online in advance to secure your preferred dates and times, as they are often cheaper than at the door and can sell out.
- Arrive at least 15-20 minutes before your scheduled ice skating time to allow for skate rental and preparation.
- Dress in warm layers, as the event is outdoors and involves ice skating, even if you are just visiting the village.
- Consider booking a cabana for a more private and comfortable experience during daytime ice skating sessions.
- Check the specific hours for 'Village ONLY' versus 'Village and Skating' as they vary throughout the season.
