About Leddy Ice Arena
Leddy Arena is a full service arena with a full size “Standard” ice surface (200×85) as well as a versatile “Studio” rink (87×66 Available mid-September through March). The amenities we offer include:
- Player Locker Rooms – one ADA accessible set, both sets with restrooms and showers
- Pro Shop – rental, sharpening and repair services, skate accessories, hockey equipment, Jackson figure skates
- Upstairs Lounge – meeting and party room with private restrooms
The Arena is always bustling with excitement. We are open almost year round (we close in May/June for maintenance and repairs) and have something for everyone. Whether your interests are figure skating, hockey, broomball or just skating with friends during public skating sessions, you are sure to find a great deal of fun and exercise at Leddy.
We are proud to be the home ice facility for Burlington’s youth hockey organization (BAHA), Burlington and Colchester boys & girls high school hockey programs, the Vermont Lumberjacks junior hockey program, Full Stride adult hockey programs, and the Champlain Valley Skating Club, which includes Vermont Children’s Theatre on Ice and On Thin Ice adult theatre troupe!
We offer a number of skating times open to the public as well. Public skating prohibits games during these sessions (hockey, racing, tag, etc.). But we do offer stick and puck sessions, where you can bring your stick, skates and a helmet to either improve your shot, or join in a small game. We also have ice times available for private rentals for your group or party or for private instruction.
There are group skating lessons offered throughout the year for ages 3-adults from beginner to advanced! Session lengths vary, skates and helmets can be provided. Lessons during the school year run on the weekends. Leddy arena also offers school vacation camps and winter break skating lessons.
