You don’t have to leave the beach in sunny Santa Monica to ice skate outside thanks to Ice at Santa Monica.

Ice at Santa Monica will return to Downtown Santa Monica with an 8,000 square-foot ice-skating rink on the corner of Fifth Street and Arizona Avenue.

Since 2006, every holiday season our local beach-side community has been transformed into the winter wonderland known as Ice at Santa Monica, an outdoor ice rink that gives everyone a chance to lace up their skates and test their skills on ice with family and friends.

Santa Monica residents and visitors can receive all-day admission and rental skates for only $15. Private or group skating lessons with the Randy Gardner School of Skating and party cabanas with catering options are available. This year, Ice Breakers Presented by The Plaza at Santa Monica will put on a free musical performance every Sunday during the season that will have everyone in the holiday spirit.

The Ice season runs from November 1, 2019 to January 20, 2020.
