After taking last winter off due to precautions around COVID-19, the skating rink at Gurney’s Newport Resort & Spa is scheduled to return this winter.

According to Gurney’s website, the rink will open for the 2021-2022 season on Friday, November 19th!

The skating rink, which is open to Gurney’s guests and the public, will be open 7 days a week from November 19 to March 31.

Skating Rink Hours:

  • Monday – Friday: 2pm – 9pm
  • Saturday – Sunday (and Holidays) : 10am – 9pm

After the Newport Skating Center closed at the Newport Yachting Center, Gurney’s added a skating rink to their property in December of 2018. The rink operated during the 2018/2019 and 2019/2020 winter seasons.
