Tips & Advice

  • Bring gloves because they are required on the ice; if you forget them, you can buy a pair at the Koek & Zopie.
  • Exchange online tickets for a wristband at the entrance, then scan it at the gate to enter the rink.
  • Bring your own skates or rent them on site; speed skates called noren are not allowed on the rink.
  • Use Curio, De Kring or Atik Stadion for nearby free parking; Curio is available only when its barrier is open.
  • Check the daily free-skating schedule before setting out, because ice activities and private events can make the rink unavailable.

  • Free skating lessons are offered this season; an admission ticket is required, and skate rental is optional.
  • Curling-lane rental is sold separately.
  • Children’s party packages are sold separately.
  • A private event closes the rink to public skating on December 3; public skating resumes December 5.
