For many of us, our only experience of an ice rink rental is attending someone’s birthday party. But rink rentals offer far more possibilities than a child’s birthday party. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just want a unique venue for a get-together, private skating time gives you the opportunity to create memorable moments.
Host a memorable event with a private ice rink rental at The Edge Sports Center. Here are three ideas for booking some ice time.
A Unique Team-Building Experience
Take your icebreakers out of your conference room and try them on some actual ice! Whether you’re starting a new venture or welcoming new employees onto your team, an ice rink offers some refreshing alternatives to standard team-building activities. (We don’t recommend trying trust falls on the ice.) Experienced skaters can help others stay upright on the ice. Learning to skate together breaks down barriers and helps team members get to know each other better in a laid-back environment.
Private Practice Time for Skaters and Athletes
For figure skaters, hockey players, or synchronized skating teams, access to uninterrupted ice time can be invaluable. Public sessions are fun, but they come with crowds, unpredictable traffic, and limited room for focused training. Renting the rink ensures a controlled environment where athletes can drill skills, run choreography, or conduct small-team practices without distractions. Coaches particularly love private rentals because they allow for customized instruction and full-ice exercises that are simply not possible during regular sessions.
A New Place for Your Family Gathering
Does your family have an annual holiday party? Take the festive spirit to the next level by holding your party on the ice this year. It’s the perfect venue for ugly (but warm) sweaters and hot chocolate. An ice rink offers something for family members of all ages. Teach the younger ones to skate or have a friendly (or very competitive) hockey tournament. The non-skaters can join in from the sidelines, enjoying the festive atmosphere and keeping score.
