Everything is very accessible, food, drink, selling of concert items. The sound & videography was incredible, I was surprised as this just isn't a venue for concerts. I would highly recommend it. I brought a jacket but it wasn't needed & we were on the main floor where the ice would be if they were playing hockey.

Yes they play popular music from tik tok songs and there are mostly teenagers working here but that's what's to be expected for a skating rink. This location is smaller than the Astro skate in orlando but it was fine and we are glad to have the option!

The place is definitely showing it's age. The skate rink seems a bit run down and neglected. Along…read morewith the decaying atmosphere, the staff, if you can find someone, are either all teenagers or unprofessional management hiding in the back. The place might be salvageable but needs investment and new management. Also agree with the others on the music, mostly inappropriate music being played, not really fitting for the ages having birthday parties here.

This place is a DUMP! Filthy, unhealthy and unsafe!…read moreSomeone needs to call the health department and safe sport. I have been skating since I was three in the US and Canada. I played division one hockey in college and i can honestly say this rink is the nastiness I have ever been in! I would never let my children skate here, especially my daughter. It is truly an unhealthy environment on multiple levels. Drive to Wesley Chapel, it well worth the hour drive to avoid this dump.

His private coach Mark was outstanding, the PlaySight system for drills was very engaging in the immediacy of feedback on every ball hit, and Nick Bolleteri had a visible presence and engagement with the teens. Our son has great coaches back home and we feel that there is much we can take back home to add to that instruction. It is not inexpensive, but when we consider how many hours of high quality instruction our son received, it is more than worth it.
