As if you needed another reason to visit the Cosmopolitan Ice Rink or an excuse to check out the debut of Fontainebleau’s Oasis Ice Rink, both venues have plans to show family-friendly holiday films that are sure to please the youngest skaters in your group.

Among the dozens of holiday events and activities, these two ice rinks have scheduled special movie nights all month long giving families a unique venue to watch their favorite holiday films.

While the rooftop Boulevard Pool at the Cosmopolitan has a speakeasy and spiked drinks for parents, kids will find fun on the ice, playing in the “snow showers,” roasting s’mores or eating churros. There are even special afternoons for photo-ops with Santa Claus (December 8, 13, 15 and 21 from 1 to 4pm). 

As for the movies, they’ll be shown on the resort’s 65-foot marquee every Monday and Tuesday at 7pm. Entry to the Cosmopolitan Ice Rink and holiday village is complimentary. Skating rates vary.
