Ice skating at City Hall

Nothing says winter magic like gliding across the ice under the twinkling stars. Barrie’s City Hall outdoor skating rink is a perfect spot for families to lace up their skates and enjoy the winter weather. Located downtown, this free activity is perfect for all ages, whether you're a seasoned skater or taking on the ice for the first time. Lace-up your skates and hit the rink from 10 am to 10 pm, seven days a week, weather permitting. Warm up afterward with hot cocoa from a nearby café!
