Penn Ice Rink Voted Metro Philly's Best!

Thank You, Philadelphia!

The Penn Ice Rink is proud to announce that we have been voted Metro Philly's BEST ICE RINK for the second year in a row.

We appreciate your appreciation for our wide-ranging programs, dedicated staff, and deep neighborhood roots.

Along with the recognition, we're humbled by the kind words shared by our colleagues: “The Penn Ice Rink team continues to set the standard for what a community skating venue should be,” said Ray Bates, Executive Director of the University of Pennsylvania Division of Business Services, which oversees our facility. “Director Rob Harkins, Assistant Manager Bill Richards, and Operations Manager Mike Petrocelli lead with passion and purpose, and it shows in every aspect of the rink—from the ice conditions to the programming to the way guests are welcomed. Their commitment to safety, accessibility, and fun has made the rink a true destination.”

Thanks again for your trust in us! We are honored to have been chosen as a Philly fav by so many of the 100K readers who cast a ballot this year. 🏆
