Magic Season Ice Arena in Bellevue

Outdoor ice skating is a perfect holiday activity and the Magic Season Ice Arena is the place to do it. Located in the Bellevue Downtown Park, it is the only outside ice skating rink in the area. They are open November 25th through January 8th. Check out the schedule here.

This year they have added a few more events like Christmas day skating, onsite skate sharpening and stroller skating.

Admission is $10 (which includes skate rental) or $7 if you bring your own skates. If you're looking for a more frugal outing, head downtown on one of their free skate Mondays - November 28th, December 5th, December 12th, and January 2nd. Expect longer lines on those days though.

Show your Bank of America debit or credit card to the ice arena staff and receive two free admissions for skating on Mondays. Or pick up Free Skate Monday passes at a Downtown Bellevue Bank of America banking center (limit of two passes per person and limited to skate availability). Participating branches include:

• Bellevue Village QFC (10116 NE 8th Street)
