2023-24 OUTDOOR RINKS UPDATE:

Unfortunately, due to the uncertain weather, staffing challenges, and the typical skating season being cut drastically short by warm temperatures, the City has made the difficult decision not to flood the outdoor rinks this year.

We know ice skating is a highlight of winter for many. We hope you will consider checking out the Shakopee Ice Arena for open skate on Saturdays. Visit www.ShakopeeMN.gov/icearena for a full schedule of open skate times.

The city has three staffed warming houses and four outdoor rink locations throughout the city.

From mid-December to late February (weather permitting), warming houses are open, rinks are lit and an attendant is on duty.

Skate rentals are not available at the outdoor rinks.

The Park Maintenance Division maintains the rinks, flooding and sweeping as needed throughout the skating season.  

Skating Rink Locations

• Green Meadows Park, 3100 Thrush St.
• Westminster Park, 801 Valley View Drive E.
• Southbridge Community Park, 7101 Southbridge Parkway
• Lions Park, 1103 Adams St. (no warming house)

Rink Lights

To turn on rink lights, push the light button between 4 and 10 p.m. to activate the lights.

At Westminster Park, the lights are on a remote timer and turn on automatically from sunset to 10 p.m.

Cold Weather Policy

Rinks will close if the temperature is -10 degrees or colder, or if the wind-chill is -15 degrees or below.

When in doubt, call the Weather Hotline at 952-233-9502.
