WHAT OUR GUESTS ARE SAYING!

Fun Place to Skate!

PPG Rink is a fun place to skate. Great location near Market Square with plenty of places to get a coffee before skating and lunch or dinner after skating. Staff inside are pleasant and very helpful. Rink Guards are also very attentive and just let you have a good time skating.

Will Definitely Go Again!

I went with my family (husband and two kids 8, 10). My husband and I had never been ice skating before. We had a lot of fun. The process of booking tickets/getting skates was easy. If we’re ever in Pittsburgh again in the winter, we would definitely go again

Wonderful Time!

I try to come here at least once a year. I went last week and had myself a wonderful time. No time limit, ice was awesome. I hope to make it out again before spring!

Super Cute for the Holidays!

Super cute for the holidays, we go every year around Christmas time. It can definitely get busy so I recommend purchasing a ticket to ice skate ahead of time online, it’s easy to do so and they provide a barcode to be scanned. Close to many restaurants/ shopping within walking distance
