House of Skate opened last winter and brought a fun, old-fashioned roller-skating rink to the city of Calgary. There are a variety of public roller-skating times, including times for families, youth, or adults only. In addition to public roller skating, they have lessons and fun events throughout the year. This is the perfect place to book for birthdays and special occasions!
