The Marble Falls ice skating rink is open from Nov. 22-Jan. 4 at Lakeside Park, 305 Buena Vista Drive, right next to the Walkway of Lights display. Don your skates—whether borrowed from the rink or your own—and take laps with family and friends.
The Christmas spirit intensifies every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night with a gentle “snowfall” for skaters and bumper car drivers.
WEEKDAYS
Skating is 5-7:30 p.m. weekdays when class is in session and 3-5:30 p.m. when school is out, starting Dec. 20.
Ice bumper cars are available from 8-10 p.m. during school and 6-10 p.m. on the holiday break, starting Dec. 20. Skating is still allowed while bumper cars are on the ice.
WEEKENDS
Skating is from 3-5:30 p.m., whether or not school is in session. Bumper cars are available from 6-10 p.m.
CLOSURES
The rink is closed on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 28, and Christmas Day, Dec. 25. It will close early at 8 p.m. on Christmas Eve, Dec. 24.
TICKETS
Buy tickets for $15 at the door during open hours or $12 at marblefallsrecreation.com by midnight the day before your trip.
WHAT ELSE TO KNOW
While there is no age restriction, children must be able to fit into at least a size 5 skate. The largest skates available are men’s size 12. Visitors are more than welcome to bring their own skates.
Admission is good for one hour of skating or about seven minutes of ice bumper cars, depending on rink capacity and the number of ticket holders.
The rink might shut down due to adverse weather conditions. If it is too hot or too rainy, skating can become dangerous since the rink is made of real ice. If there is a weather delay, an announcement will be made on the Marble Falls Parks and Recreation Facebook page at least two hours in advance. Stay updated via Facebook, on Instagram @VisitMarbleFalls, or at visitmarblefalls.org.
The rink is available for private parties on Saturdays and Sundays. Parties must be booked at least one week in advance. The fee is $250 for Marble Falls residents and $350 for non-residents. A reservation is good for up to 50 guests and one hour of rink time. Call 830-798-6250 to learn more.
