People skating on an outdoor rink with snow covered pine trees.

Skating

Get those skates on and glide onto the most magical outdoor ice skating rink in Toronto.

Evergreen Brick Works Skating Rink

The Evergreen Brick Works outdoor skating rink, weaves through snow-covered gardens under exposed beams from the roof of the old brick factory. There’s truly no other skating rink like it in the city. Bonus, it features an ECO CHILL® refrigeration system for sustainable cooling, how “cool” is that?

 

Our skating rink has closed for this season. The skating rink is only open during the winter season and is open to the public from December to early March. Please be advised that as this is an outdoor rink, the condition of the rink and its availability is weather-dependent.

FAQ

Shoes, hockey sticks, pucks, strollers and pets are not permitted on the ice. However, skate assists and wheelchairs are allowed. We do have a few skate assists to lend out for free as well as CSA-approved helmets that are mandatory for children under 6 years old.
Free helmet rentals are available at the rink for skaters of all ages.

What do we do in inclement weather?

In the case of warm weather or extreme weather, Evergreen will cancel lessons & close public skating.
