Want to watch planes fly out of Midway while you glide across the ice? Wentworth Park is located just to the west of Chicago's South Side airport and houses a skating rink that's open to guests five days a week.
Skate rentals: $7
You don’t have to stay cooped up inside just because it’s winter in Chicago. The city’s home to numerous ice rinks, both outdoor and indoor, for skaters of all levels. You can hit the ice near some of Chicago’s most iconic attractions, like in Millennium Park and alongside Wrigley Field, or make your way to the indoor skating options, like a rink in suburban Rosemont. The most convenient part is you don’t even need to buy a pair of skates, as all of the rinks have rentals available for skaters of all levels for a small fee. Get ready for an afternoon of wintry fun when you stop by some of our choices for the best ice skating rinks in Chicago.
Chicago Park District ice rinks will open November 25. All outdoor rinks operate weather permitting, so call ahead to confirm availability.
