The ice is back! Howelsen Ice Arena officially reopens tomorrow, May 26, and we’re excited to welcome the community back to the rink. Most regular programming and activities are now available.
As construction work continues toward final completion, patrons should expect periodic loud noise during normal business hours. In addition, bumper cars may be temporarily unavailable through June while remaining project work is completed.
Thank you for your patience and support during these improvements. We look forward to seeing everyone back on the ice!
