Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- Arrive at least 20 minutes before your booked session to allow ample time for skate hire and securing belongings.
- Consider booking 'Tiny Tuesdays' for a more relaxed experience with very young children, as there's no minimum age restriction.
- Dress in waterproof outdoor clothing, as even with a covered rink, there's a possibility of getting wet from ice spray.
- Book skate aids like penguins or snowmen in advance online, as they are in limited supply and highly recommended for younger or less experienced skaters.
- Take advantage of the nearby shops, bars, and restaurants in Windsor's main shopping center for a full day out.
