The City of Dublin added a new, temporary ice rink to Riverside Crossing Park for winter fun in Dublin! The 3,200-square-foot rink is located in the lower plaza on the east side of the Dublin Link pedestrian bridge.
This new ice rink differs from the Ice Rink at Coffman Park, which requires freezing temperatures. The Riverside Crossing Park Ice Rink can be used through most of winter, even on warmer days.
Riverside Crossing Park Ice Rink
The Dublin Ice Rink at Riverside Crossing opened on Friday, December 17, 2021, and will stay open through mid-March 2022.
Admission is $10 and includes skate rental. Guests can bring their own ice skates, but admission is still $10. Only contactless payments such as debit and credit will be accepted. The vendor does not accept cash for this attraction.
There is no time limit for skaters on the ice. Once guests leave the skate-changing area, their session is over, unless skates are being removed to visit the restroom.
Check the City of Dublin website to ensure the rink is open or to verify hours, as the ones listed below may change. The rink will close if skating conditions are unsafe, including excessive rain, extremely warm temperatures or poor driving conditions in and around the city.
The Riverside Crossing Park ice skating rink is maintained by Out of the Box Enterprises, LLC. Cooling equipment allows the ice rink to remain in operation at temperatures up to 60 degrees. Crews will resurface the ice daily using a Zamboni.
