The Event Center opens September 3^rd, at noon with a half-price Public Skate to usher in the upcoming winter season!

Don’t know how to ice skate? Don’t rule out this family-friendly activity! The Laramie Ice & Event Center offers classes in Figure Skating, Hockey, and Adult Skating Lessons.  Skates are included and lessons are available to anyone aged 3+. 

“The Ice and Event Center is open to people of all ages, at all levels of ability to come out and enjoy the ice. It’s a place for families, friends, and community to gather. We get to bring a bit of joy and light to our community during a season that can be daunting and tough to get in activity,” says Courtney Boutelle, the Ice and Events Center Supervisor

In addition to lessons, the Ice & Event Center is home to several fun leagues and clubs, including, broomball, amateur hockey, and High-Altitude Skating Club. In addition, the Ice and Event Center is home to UW Men’s and Women’s Club Hockey Teams, the Wyoming Collegiate Figure Skating Club, and the Outlaw Youth Hockey Program, which gives over 100 kids from 6 to 19 the chance to compete.

If you prefer a little less structure when you’re on the ice, there are public skating sessions, stick and puck (must have your own helmet, gloves, and stick), and freestyle figuring skate times throughout the week.

“The Event Center has events throughout the year from hockey games to figure skating recitals and the public is always welcome to come and enjoy! Details are available on our online calendar.” Courtney said.
