Chattanooga Presents announces riverfront ice skating rink




Chattanooga Presents has partnered with Volkswagen Chattanooga to offer Chattanooga’s first riverfront ice skating rink, Ice on the Landing. A new holiday attraction, the ice rink will be located under the open sky in the waterfront setting on the Chattanooga Green.

The 50 feet by 70 feet rink will open Friday, Nov. 28 –  the same night as the popular Lighted Boat Parade – and will remain in place through Jan. 4, 2015.

A schedule to accommodate general skating for the public as well as special events, including appearances by Santa and nights to benefit local charities, will keep the rink busy during the six-week schedule.

Tickets will be $10 for adults and $8 for children 12 and under. This includes skate rental and skating for two hours. Hot chocolate and other snack vendors will also be on hand.

Equipment will be provided through Magic Ice USA, based in Orlando, Fla. Magic Ice USA is a provider of outdoor, seasonal, temporary, and portable Holiday Ice Skating.

Ice on the Landing will operate under the local management of Chattanooga Presents, and is made possible through sponsorships from Volkswagen Chattanooga, EPB Fiber Optics, Tennessee Valley Federal Credit Union, Mark Hite of Keller Williams Realty, the Riverfront Business & Residents Partnership, Children’s Hospital at Erlanger, and Coyote Logistics.

A detailed schedule of operating hours and activities on the rink can be found at www.iceonthelanding.com.
