We suggest you choose a package based on the number of total guests. From there, you can add additional skaters, if needed up to one (1) week prior to your event at $6/ skater.
For us to provide you with the best experience for your party, it is very helpful to have skate sizes for everyone in your party three (3) days prior to your event. Having their skate sizes in advance will allow our team to pull your skates and have them waiting for you when you and your guests arrive for the party. If you are unable to obtain skate sizes in advance, your guests will have to wait in line to obtain their needed skate size.
You only pay for those who plan to skate on the ice.
