Florida Hospital Center Ice Presents Holiday Skating at Tampa Premium Outlets

If you’ve ever wondered what ice skating is like and always wanted to try, now’s your chance.

Starting Saturday, December 17, Florida Hospital Center Ice (FHCI), in partnership with Tampa Premium Outlets at the corner of I-75 and S.R. 56, will offer public skating sessions during the holidays on a new, 20’ by 40’ synthetic ice surface, located in Lagoon Court at TPO.

Multiple  sessions will be held on Dec. 17 and 18 and Dec. 21-23, between noon-3 p.m. and 5-8 p.m.

There is, however, a possibility that the public skating sessions may be extended during the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day. Check the TPO website for updates.

All skating sessions are 30 minutes in length.

Skate rental is $6, a pair of socks is $2, and a skating walker is $1.

“We are excited to offer ice skating on a new synthetic surface at Tampa Premium Outlets during the holidays,” said Gordie Zimmermann, managing partner at FHCI, in a press release. “With our opening next month, we look forward to seeing many people from the Tampa Bay area who will be shopping at the outlets and skating at our facility on a real ice surface. This is an opportunity to get a head start on getting a feel of what skating is like.”
