Advice for Ice
Skating at Rockefeller Center: Ice skating
at Rockefeller Center is a quintessential New York City
winter experience. The Ice Skating Rink at Rockefeller
Center first opened on Christmas Day in 1936. The Ice
Skating Rink at Rockefeller Center can accommodate approximately
150 skaters at a time and the rink is 122 feet long
and 59 feet wide.
While ice skating at Rockefeller
Center is an experience that many New York City visitors
desire, keep in mind that you're paying a premium to
be able to say you ice skated at Rockefeller Center
-- despite the small ice skating surface and the often
crowded atmosphere. Ice skating prices at Rockefeller
Center are most expensive during peak holiday periods,
and busiest at those times also. Early morning during
holiday periods and weekdays before 4 p.m. tend to be
quieter times at the Ice Rink at Rockefeller Center.
