about Pasadena Ice Skating Center:

If the kids are dreaming of being the next Michelle Kwan or Scott Hamilton, there is no need for Pasadena-dwellers to look farther than their own Pasadena Ice Skating Center.

The rink offers figure skating lessons at all levels. The ice surface size is a non-standard 150 feet by 90 feet, but several informal competitions are hosted throughout the year all the same.

Hockey leagues for adults and children ages 16 and over meet at the rink, as do adult pick-up games and hockey lessons.

Public skating sessions are offered daily, including special "Cheapskate" sessions on Sunday mornings and Thursday evenings. Check the website for specific schedule details.

Both the ice and a party room are available for birthday parties, which can include a lesson for an extra charge. There is a skating pro shop on site, open seven days.

The rink is also available for private rental and is a popular site for fans of broomball, a game played like hockey with brooms and a tennis ball.

The rink can be a bit difficult to find, as signage is sparse. Visitors should head to Pasadena Convention Center, which houses the rink.

Street parking can be difficult to find, and the Pasadena Center Garage can be pricey. Another option is parking at Paseo Colorado parking garages, located adjacent and across the street. The Ice Skating Center doesn't validate, but any business in the mall will do so (without purchase).
