I've been attending events at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium (The Aud) since my first year in…read moreuniversity way back when I was much younger and better at holding my liquor. Aside from the Kitchener Rangers games that I must note are a remarkable experience to attend - seriously OHL games are amazing (who needs the NHL anyway). The Aud is also a great spot for Concerts, Events and Variety acts. I had the great joy of seeing both Tim Allen and Russel Peters perform their comedy routines while I was attending Wlifrid Laurier University. The great thing about seeing variety acts at the Aud is that the smaller arena size means that there is seldom a bad seat in the house. You can have a great view pretty much anywhere and the seating is comfortable. Most recently - as in last night - I once again ventured back to the KW area to attend the University night of Oktoberfest. While this event isn't as traditional as other Oktoberfest events, you can still get a fresh hot Pretzel, Bratwurst, hats, lederhosen, drindle and of course Beer! The venue set up for this is great : long tables sit in traditional Oktoberfest style end to end, plenty of ingenius garbage can/table hybrids fill the space and to cap it all off the large stage at the front of the room is a great focal point where all can watch the band play traditional German folk songs and contemporary hits. Love the Aud, if you're in KW and there is something awesome going on here (or need to check out what awesomeness is going on there check the website), I recommend you try this place out! 13/30

I was a bit sceptical about going roller skating since I've never even tried before. I do know how…read moreto ice skate, though. My friends insisted on going, so I went along. It was a pretty busy Saturday night, with the parking lot filled and overflowing into the businesses nearby. A Saturday night session (8 p.m. to 1 a.m.) is $18 and skate rentals are $5. Lockers are $0.25 every time you need to get into them. You can definitely fit at least a few pairs of shoes in one locker. We had already eaten before we came, but there's a snack bar with plenty of seating. There's also a small arcade area, a couple of claw machines, billiard tables, and party rooms. There were at least two staff members on the roller skating rink, making sure that the people who fell were okay as well as escorting people to and from the entrance of the rink. It took me a bit of time, but I got used to roller skating and was comfortable going at my own pace even though there were plenty of other people zooming by and doing tricks. The DJ was great at mixing old and new songs together.

This one is also conveniently located by the Tom Graham Arena so there are facilities and parking nearby. They had an art show the day we were going so the lot was quite full on the side closest to he community center but there was still a lot of parking spots farther on. The skate trail actually has a little dedicated area for changing that's indoors or they have tables and benches outside (fingers might get cold!). It's a trail through some trees that kind of loops around so it's a lot more interesting than going around in circles. They play music as well to add to the liveliness.

Awesome skating trail! Smaller than I imagined but nevertheless still fun for an hour or two. It is…read morefree and they don't have skate rentals on site. Come in the mornings when there are less people. Many families come here with smaller children who are trying to learn too. There are no borders around the trail so be careful of skating off trail. Plenty of parking, and the Zamboni comes every 1.5hr or so.

As a box lacrosse arena, it gets the job done, but it would be nice if the rink had turf. Otherwise, it was a good venue, the sightlines were good and concessions were good as well with reasonable prices. Admission ($10) was a good price for an evening of entertainment, and it was an enjoyable way to spend the evening. I look forward to coming back for another game next season.

This is a cozy little ice trial, the shape of an oval. It is about a quarter the size of a hockey…read morerink. The trail is 5 metres wide. An average skater could skate the entire trail in 1-1.5 mins. Unfortunately there are no skate rentals onsite. This trail is part of the park part of College Park (so many P's!). It was officially opened on 2019-12-07. It is the first outdoor skating path in North America to incorporate state-of-the-art carbon dioxide technology in its refrigeration system. This environmentally friendly technology is natural, non-toxic and non-flammable, with no net greenhouse gas effect. They use a zamboni to smoother the ice. There are 2 firepits nearby and 3 ice sculptures. There is an event called Skates and Sounds held on 2020-01-24, 2020-02-07, 2020-02-28 (all Fridays), 5-7pm, where they have a DJ, FREE 1-hour skate rentals, FREE skating frames for young children, free coffee, and free chocolates. I skated on 2020-02-07. It was about 30 years ago that I skated last! It was fun! Having free skate rental and music was a good bonus! During the warm months, it is a walking trail.

I've been an Organizer for an ice skating Group since Jan. 2007, and yesterday I hosted an Event…read morefor my Group at the Barbara Ann Scott Ice Trail. It was my first time skating in more than 3 years and the last time I skated (in Jan. 2020) it was my first visit to this Trail which was also for an Event with my skating Group. The Trail features a relatively warm indoor change room/area with a washroom but no skate rentals are available here. The Trail itself is fairly small and (of course) narrow, and when I started skating yesterday at 1:30 pm both the change room and the Trail were pretty barren. During the next 1 1/2 hours both the change room and Trail gradually became more crowded; shortly after I started skating music began playing through speakers situated around the Trail and as I was putting on my skates in the change room, several people started setting up a table for free skate rentals (subject to availability) with valid ID. Between 2:30 - 2:45 pm the Zamboni came out for ice maintenance; due to the small size of the Trail this only took about 10 - 15 minutes. Afterward I skated around the Trail a couple more times to check how much better the quality of ice was - it was considerably better - then finished shortly before 3 pm. I've skated on a few other outdoor Trails in Toronto over the years: the Colonel Samuel Smith Skating Trail in Etobicoke, the Trail at Evergreen Brick Works and The Bentway Trail underneath The Gardiner; this one is smaller than the Etobicoke Trail, about the same size as The Bentway Trail and larger than The Brickworks Trail and it's now the first Trail I've skated on more than once. With College Park next door and Yonge Street steps away there are no shortage of amenities nearby. The Trail features 'Skates & Sounds' every Friday throughout February, with a different DJ every week and free skate rentals (again, subject to availability) from 5 to 8 pm.
