It all begins with The Rink at Rockefeller Center opening on October 8, and then The Bank of America Winter Village at Bryant Park opening shortly after on October 29. The Rink is open daily from 8:30am to midnight, but our advice? Start practicing your axels ASAP. Once we hit holiday and peak season, you’ll be shelling out $27 or $32 just to skate (versus $25 for general admission). Oh, and skate rentals cost an extra $12.
