City Hall skating rink

The skating rink at Kitchener City Hall is open daily from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m., weather dependent.

Changerooms are available in Carl Zehr Square from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.


Victoria Park skating rink

The Victoria Park skating rink is currently closed due to inclement weather. When weather permits, the skating rink is open daily from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m.

A public washroom is available next to the rink at 40 Jubilee Drive.


Neighbourhood rinks

Our winter rink volunteers and city staff have worked hard to prepare and set up outdoor rinks in neighbourhoods across the city.

Please respect the rink signage at each location to determine whether the rink is open or closed due to the inconsistent weather we have been experiencing and potentially unsafe ice conditions. 

Subscribe to our outdoor activities update news feed to be notified when outdoor rinks are open or closed.


Volunteer to help

Our outdoor winter rinks are completely dependent on weather and volunteer support. Without generous help from our community volunteers, our rinks wouldn't be possible.

We are currently recruiting winter rink volunteers and coordinators (ages 18+) to help prepare, flood, and maintain our outdoor rinks from December through March (weather depending).

* Winter rink coordinator positions available are limited, dependent upon volunteer turnover and new rink progress.
