There’s Nothing More Special Than An Evening On This Ice Skating Rink In North Carolina

Winter activities in North Carolina rarely include an outdoor ice rink that’s open throughout the season. But this year, you can skate out of doors on ice through February at the U.S. National Whitewater Center in Charlotte. For a day or night filled with some wholesome family fun, head to this outdoor facility and get your skate on!

Due to COVID and North Carolina regulations, the number of skaters at any given time is limited this season. And for that reason, all skating sessions should be reserved online and in advance. Skate sessions are also timed at one hour.

You don't need to buy an all-activity pass for the Whitewater Center this year, either. You can simply purchase a single-activity pass solely for ice skating.

Single-activity passes are $20. Skating sessions take place between 10 a.m. and 10 p.m.
