The Bellevue Downtown Ice Rink will return for its 28th holiday season at Bellevue Downtown Park from November 21, 2025, through January 19, 2026. The rink is the region’s largest seasonal ice skating venue, featuring more than 9,000 square feet of real ice in a fully covered, open-air setting surrounded by Bellevue’s skyline.
Located one block south of Bellevue Square at NE 1st Street and 100th Avenue NE near Inspiration Playground, the rink offers themed skate nights, on-site concessions, and special appearances from the Seattle Kraken on select dates. Complimentary skate lessons, courtesy of Microsoft, will also be available throughout the season on designated days and Wednesdays.
“For 28 years, the Bellevue Downtown Ice Rink has brought people together in the heart of Downtown Bellevue,” said Bellevue Downtown Association (BDA) President Patrick Bannon. “We’re proud to continue creating a space that celebrates community, connection, and the simple joy of the season.”
Advance tickets and season passes are available now at bellevueicerink.com, and walk-up tickets will be limited. Admission includes skate rental, and non-skaters do not pay admission.
