Ice Skating at the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas

Did you know you can ice skate on the Las Vegas strip?

Over the weekend, we went ice skating at the Cosmopolitan for date night, and it was a magical evening. We hung out at the cozy firepit, had a few boozy drinks, people watched, and then worked up the courage to ice skate.

Our Experience

We’re always looking for great views in Las Vegas and ice skating from this vantage point was just icing on the cake. It was really magical to experience snow right on the strip.

It was definitely crowded during our visit, but we still really enjoyed it. When the rink felt too crowded, we escaped to our fire pit and ordered drinks. Now that there’s limited capacity, it will be much better.

  • Wear thick socks to make the ice skates more comfortable.
  • Dressing in layers is helpful so you can shed your jacket when you’re moving around but bundle up when you’re sitting.
