Tips & Advice

  • Check the Bartlesville Christmas in the Ville Facebook page before you go, because rink hours can change because of the weather.
  • Bring kids 12 and under on Friday for Family Skate, which is reserved for them and an adult before public skating starts.
  • On opening night most activities are free, but bring money for food, carriage rides and ice skating, which cost extra.
  • Dress warmly in layers and bring gloves, because the ice rink is outdoors and skating runs into the evening.
  • Plan around the rink being closed on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
