Sharpen your skates, because the world-famous Rink at Rockefeller Center has its grand opening ceremony October 11. The opening ceremony on Wednesday features a performance from Olympic champion ice dancers Meryl Davis and Charlie White with young skaters from Figure Skating in Harlem and Ice Theatre of New York, beginning at 9am. Having celebrated its 80th anniversary last year, the Rink is ready to usher in a whole new season and welcome thousands of visitors this fall and winter. Advance reservations are available now for skate sessions beginning October 13.
Fall is definitely a great time to experience this NYC gem, with lots of locals hitting the Rink ahead of the holiday season.

You can also prepare with some background on the Rink’s history before you go, as well as ice skating tips from a pro instructor, and the story of a longtime Zamboni driver.
