The rink will again be open on New Year’s Eve
Due to the large volume of visitors the outdoor ice skating rink at the University of Nebraska Medical Center will once again be open on New Year’s Eve.
“It was the busiest day of the season,” said Anna Kirshenbaum, special events associate for UNMC. “And because of that we wanted people to be able to enjoy the rink again this year on New Year’s Eve.”
The rink is located just east of 42nd Street, midway between Emile Street and Dewey Avenue on the north side of the Michael F. Sorrell Center for Health Science Education building. It features concessions, music and seasonal decorations.
Admission is $7, which includes skates (cash or credit card only-no checks or debit cards).
Hours of operation are:
· 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. to 8 p.m., Tuesday through Friday.
· Noon to 8 p.m., Saturday and Sunday.
· The rink will be open on New Year’s Eve.
The rink will be closed on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day. It also is closed on Monday nights for the UNMC student broomball league tournaments.
Free parking is available in Lot 04 (southeast corner of 42nd and Emile St.) and Lot 15S (surface lot on 40th Street between Dewey & Emile streets) located on the north and east sides of the Student Life Center.
The ice rink will be closed if the wind-chill is 0 degrees or below, based on the Weather Channel. In the event of extreme snow, please call 402.559.0697 in advance to make sure the rink is open. Notice of the ice rink closing for private events or due to inclement weather can be found on the ice rink’s Facebook page, The Ice at the UNMC.
The ice skating rink is open through Jan. 31.
