The best spots in the city for skating.
The holiday season has come and gone, and you’re probably wishing there was a few more things to do (aside from eating) in the winter. Cue ice skating! Ice skating is a blast, whether you’re going out for date night or spending the evening with a group of friends. There’s quite a few Chicago spots to skate, and we’ve got them right here.

Skates for $7 and sled assisted skating for those in need. With planes flying overhead from nearby Midway, this park is the perfect spot for skating.
