Welcome to Macquarie Ice Rink

Sydney’s iconic Macquarie Ice Rink, which opened in 1981, has been both a playground and training facility to all levels of skating from recreational, national, international and Olympic champions.

Macquarie Ice Rink is located within Macquarie Shopping Centre and easily accessible from the Macquarie University Metro Station. It is currently the only facility in Sydney to provide a full size Olympic rink (60m x 30m) with seating for approximately 2000 people. A broad range of skating disciplines are offered including Figure Skating, Short Track Speed Skating and Ice Hockey.

Macquarie Ice Rink is located in Macquarie Shopping Centre on the corner of Waterloo and Herring Roads, North Ryde, Sydney, Australia.
We are open every day except Christmas Day and operate with day and night sessions. These sessions differ between school term and school holidays, so take care when checking session times.
We recommend wearing a helmet, wrist guards and knee guards for your protection.

Classes are conducted during school term in group lessons under the guidance of Macquarie Ice Rink's, professionally accredited coaches.

The Learn to Skate curriculum covers the basic skills of ice skating including: balance and gliding safely; forwards and backwards skating; crossovers and turning. A great starting point to then progress into your Ice Skating Journey!
