Paradice Ice Skating Rink, Auckland

Auckland has two Olympic size ice-rinks to skate. This venue is the older of the two, servicing the central and western areas of Auckland. Both rinks are complete with pro-shop, bar and function room, learner classes, group concessions, catering to birthday parties, and of course the sale and rental of ice and inline skates and equipment. Though it has been going for years, the Avondale location is well maintained and a pleasure to visit. Look for crowds around school holiday times. Additional branch: Corner Botany Road and Ti Rakau Drive, Botany Downs, South Auckland. Check the website for session details.
