Outdoor Rinks
Outdoor ice rinks are located in parks around Kingston. Check out the list and map of all the outdoor rinks. Rink status is updated throughout the day.
When do outdoor rinks open?
There is no set opening date and operational times may vary between rinks. Please check the map above for individual rink status. Opening depends on several factors:
- A series of very cold days to build up the ice
- Whether the rink has access to water on-site. Rinks with access to water may open earlier because it makes it easier to prepare the ice. Rinks without access to water require a truck to bring it on-site, which changes the process of preparing and flooding the ice so it is ready and safe for skating.
The one exception is the rink at Springer Market Square, which has a refrigerated cooling system that allows it to open earlier in the season.
Community rinks
These are rinks on City property that are run by a group of volunteers. The City will put up boards at these locations, but it is up to the volunteers to prepare and maintain the ice. Community rinks must comply with our Outdoor Rink Policy and volunteers must follow the instructions in our Outdoor Rink Manual.
