Through the end of Summer 2014 (September 1st), come here to build a snowman in the "Do you wanna…read morebuild a snowman?" area and/or enjoy some honest to goodness ice skating right in the middle of Central Florida. Yes, you did hear me correctly... they have an ice skating rink here! Enter into the "Do you wanna build a snowman?" area and you'll find real ice everywhere along with buckets and shovels to help gather the snow. Make sure to be careful though (and watch your little ones) because the ice and snow are quite slippery. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/oakens-frozen-funland-orlando#KyYKeJTFx5ECbo7-LqJxyQ If you want to try your hand (or feet, I should say) at ice skating, there is a $10 fee to do so which gives you 30 minutes on the ice. This fee includes skates, gloves, and a helmet. Skating is first come first serve and is open until 6pm. bookmarks folder "News" The workers come out every now and then with a small zamboni to remove the grooves and smooth the ice. I saw this done once and just afterwards, a couple of Arendelle citizens (a young man and woman) come out on the ice and skated for approximately 10 minutes. They are professional skaters and they skate along as a pair to some of the popular songs from Frozen. This is not listed in any of the guides, etc. Imagine my surprise when they hit the ice! I was excited to be there while this was going on. It was great to be able to watch! I absolutely love watching figure skating. You'll also find Olaf's snack stand inside here. Lots of yummy goodies! They have three different kinds of cupcakes: Elsa (white cake w/ buttercream icing) http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/oakens-frozen-funland-orlando#RlLfcPBcxh9DGIGMgQu6aA Anna (chocolate cake w/ buttercream icing) http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/oakens-frozen-funland-orlando#wVcDAPSmia-udBcAHUrQig and Olaf (carrot cake with cream cheese icing) http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/oakens-frozen-funland-orlando#NvGcUD3IKZAoFb-Rr2jgew Sprinkled on top of all three cupcakes are tiny edible snowflakes. There's a stick thing in the top of the Elsa and Anna cupcakes with their photos on them and at first I thought it was plastic and you just pulled it out. I laid it on my plate, but I kept touching it and it appeared to be smearing some. I asked my husband if it was edible. He said it was plastic. I told him I thought it was edible. He said, "Well, I'm not going to bite into it and break a tooth." So, after inspecting it some more, I finally gave it a slight bite and what do you know? It was white chocolate! Surprise! The one on top of the Anna cupcake is also white chocolate. I did take a photo of Olaf's cupcake, but I can't for the life of me remember if he is white chocolate or a marshmallow or what. I did hear people raving about how good the carrot cake cupcake is. Also, I really enjoyed my Elsa cupcake. The cake was perfectly moist and the buttercream was just the right amount of sweet without being over-powering. The cupcakes I had definitely can go neck and neck with some of the best cupcakes I've had from legit cupcake shops! They are also big; I had to eat mine with a fork. Also at the snack stand, you'll find a very special Olaf plastic cup which comes filled with a blue raspberry slushie http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/oakens-frozen-funland-orlando#pUj-qdsNY34SvHoVJxcHoA SO GOOD! These cups are pretty awesome too. Because of the size of them and the way they are shaped (the lid also snaps on nice and tightly), we've been bringing them into the Parks empty (we have three of them) with cans or bottles of Pepsi. You can get free cups of ice at any QSR (Quick Service Restaurant) Stands and we've been pouring the ice into the Olaf cups for our Pepsi. Saves some $$ on buying Disney drinks, let me tell ya! I just wish you could get them refilled with the blue raspberry slushie at a discounted price. That's why we've ended up with three of the things... we can't get enough of the slushies.

It's all about Frozen, right? Yes! It's definitely cold, cold, cold in here.... Brrrrrr!

In searching for a DJ for our 70+ person corporate holiday party, we knew we needed to find someone…read morewho could energize the crowd and keep everyone engaged. In the swarm of DJ's in Orlando, I was so pleased we decided on Nvision Productions! I worked with Christian several weeks before the event, walked through the venue and discussed the time line of the evening. He is personable, and since this was our first party we had done like this, he was very reassuring. I was very skeptical of the additional expense for lighting but I took his word for it and all I can say is.... BUY the lighting package!! It is 100% worth it. While Christian was fantastic at getting the people moving.. the lighting really set the stage and gave the room a party atmosphere! It is worth every penny. Christian was also perfectly professional. He set up hours before the event to make sure everything was in place, he stayed long after the party was over to pack up all of his gear. He was polite to everyone while he fielded their song requests, worked the light show and even led several of the line dances to keep the crowd dancing.... He's got some pretty good moves himself :) and really made everyone feel comfortable! I can't recommend them highly enough. We are excited to have another party with NVision!

3 Stars for a fun skate experience for kids that does the job…read more.. Astro Skate is not a looker from outside (hot pink painted building with a hot pink spray painted old school bus parked beside it), but it was packed on the Saturday we were there for a kid's birthday party, so they're not hurting for business. Skaters check-in at the front and pay for their skates and a roller skating trainer (some PVC pipes with wheels that rents for $5 a pop and proved invaluable to most of the kids at the party). You're then buzzed into the main area where there's a bar with pizza oven, an area with tables for parties, a practice room, and the big skating rink. It's all pretty dated, but that kind of works for the nostalgia that is evoked at a roller skating rink. I didn't try the pizza, but had a french fry or two and they were surprisingly good. The main event aka the skating rink: The music is fun, there are black lights everywhere, and everyone was respecting the single direction of skating, which was great because kids were everywhere! They even had a bounce house at one end of the rink! At one point they called everyone to the center to make a circle and bring out the big mascot: Party Panda. These kids were HYPED and instructed to cheer as the masked character skated out onto the rink. I have to be honest, it was comical how unenthused the hot pink panda was as they slowly skated to the center and barely lifted their hand high enough to give the kids high fives when instructed. It was truly something out of a movie (lol). I guess even mascots have bad days? It was a bummer for the kids though and definitely a WHOMP WHOMP moment after all the hype for Party Panda. Overall, it was fine and the kids had a great time. Would I return for a date night or find a more updated rink? Probably the latter.

THIS PLACE IS HORRIBLE!!!…read more 1. The fake ice skating rink is clearly old and needs to be updated. Or, I don't know... GET AN ACTUAL RINK! 2. I noticed that some of the staff are minors. There's nothing wrong with that except they worked harder than the actual adults there. 3. This building is SO MUSTY. The bouncy houses were dirty and stinky (clearly haven't been cleaned in a while or ever). 4.The VR wasn't even fun but I also felt like I was in line waiting for a "ride" that was broken and was "fixed" by duct tapping the piece back on to the VR headset. But all that did was scratch my face. I didn't even see any sterilization WHAT SO EVER. 5. It was so expensive for just the smaller pack of activities. How can you charge so much for a place so rundown, boring, and tiny? Idk what I was expecting when I first walked in lol. 6. Last but not least... NO FOOD AND NO BEVERAGE. How can you advertise as a place for families when you don't even have snacks. NOT EVEN A SNACK! The website is all a lie. Trust the reviews and save your money!!!

Holy throwback vibes!! This place literally feels like you're walking back in time. If you used to…read morego skating when you were a child and are looking for some nostalgia this is definitely the spot to hit. We took our daughter here recently to get some wiggles out and just enjoy learning a new skill. She's only been skating a few times around our neighborhood and we thought that this would be an immersive way to get her into the hobby. Definitely check out their calendar of events and when they have good offers and deals. You're likely to score a cheaper price than regular pricing if you pay attention. They also have themed nights and exclusive school nights. You can bring your own skates but you'll need to make sure that they pass the skate check. They do have some limitations on skates you bring in to ensure that their floors don't get torn up. As a side note you'll also want to make sure you bring in identification for all adults, and leave any food or drinks that come from outside in your car. Learned both of these the hard way. They have a smaller child skating area that helps them learn before they get out onto the bigger floor. Our daughter enjoyed this so that she had a little bit of time to learn before being thrown into a large space. We did have her try out the large space after about an hour of practice. They also have a limited number of arcade games, a small cafe, and a birthday party room. Overall: A Well it is a bit dated and could use some upgrades, it brings with it all the nostalgia of my childhood so it was still a win. I would definitely come back for a visit but try again on a non weekend day when the pricing is a little bit lower.

I've been coming here for over 10 years and always have a great time getting my skate on. They have a DJ spinning tunes , skate shop to purchase skates and accessories , rental skates for all sizes including beginner skates but they do not have the trainer assistance for those who are in need of something to hold on too like Astro skate. Snack bar has food , slushies , ice cream and fountain drinks and a nice area designated for eating so the skating area stays nice and clean. They also offer birthday party packages that you can view on their website . Hope to see you on the rink !

They have concessions in case you get hungry and, for the most part, the skates are in decent condition. Be prepared to have some quarters if you need to use the lockers.
