Pershing Square’s Holiday Ice Rink opens today in downtown Los Angeles: outdoor skating through 3 January 2027

The Holiday Ice Rink Pershing Square, downtown Los Angeles’ outdoor ice rink, opens today, Thursday 12 November 2026, and will stay open daily until 3 January 2027, according to the organisers.

The rink takes over Pershing Square (532 S Olive St) in the heart of the city’s financial district, offering outdoor ice skating surrounded by skyscrapers and palm trees — a downtown LA holiday tradition. Tickets are already on sale and the organisers have announced an opening celebration on Thursday evening, 19 November.

Keeping real ice open to the sky in a city with mild winters takes precise refrigeration, insulation and thermal control: the same principles we apply in every real-ice rink Napapiri manufactures, rents or sells — anywhere, in any climate.
