Believe it or not, the season of winter activities is already starting. We may not have much snow in Ontario just yet, but we’ll soon be able to lace up our skates glide along the ice under the stars.
The Harbourfront Centre’s revamped rink is set to open on November 19th and it’s one of the city’s most picturesque spots for an outdoor skate. The centre told Curiocity all about its new rink this year, which they built as a solution to the infrastructural issues they faced last year.
The rink is nestled along the Lake Ontario shoreline, along with an ice loop in the “south orchard” that connects to the rest of the rink. And once you’re done, you can warm up with a hot drink from Boxcar Social right next door.
