Skate Date

Los Angeles Downtown Ice Rink

12.19.2019

Los Angeles County

Ice skating in the land of palm trees? That's so LA, and we love it! Holiday cheer flourishes at Pershing Square’s festive Holiday Ice Rink. Framed by towering skyscrapers that twinkle at night, the skating rink could be Rockefeller Center’s long-lost cousin. Don the winter hat (read: baseball cap), lace up the skates, and hit that counter-clockwise flow.
