Summary
Skating at Atrium Le 1000
Thinking of indoor skating in Montreal? Atrium le 1000 is the premier destination, situated on the southern edge of downtown near Chinatown and Old Montreal. It is housed within the “Le 1000” building, the tallest high-rise in the city.
With an expansive 10,000 square foot rink topped with a stunning glass dome, residents and visitors alike can skate year-round in a cozy environment. You could even opt for light clothing, such as shorts and a tank top, while enjoying a session. This rink is particularly appealing during winter months when outdoor conditions, especially at Montreal’s top outdoor rinks, may hinder skating activities due to extreme weather.
The centralized location offers not only accessibility but also a food court, ensuring visitors have a variety of options nearby. Regular events and themed nights, such as $5 Wednesdays, enhance the overall skating experience. Moreover, kids’ birthday parties are frequently hosted at this vibrant venue.
