About This Event
ICE at Santa Monica is a seasonal outdoor ice skating rink set up in the heart of downtown each winter, typically from mid-November through mid-January. The rink transforms 5th Street between Arizona and Wilshire into a holiday village with skating, food vendors, and festive decorations. It's one of the few outdoor ice rinks in the Los Angeles area and a popular holiday activity for families and couples. Sessions are typically 90 minutes.
