Since 1996, ice skaters have gracefully glided beneath clear skies atop the shiny surface of the outdoor Westport PAL Rink. 2016 marks their 20th anniversary being the only true outdoor public ice skating rink in Fairfield County. Every night when the sun goes down, overhead lights flicker on around the boards to accommodate late-night triple axels and hockey games delayed by puck strikes. The rink’s instructors are each certified by the United States Figure Skating Association and offer group and private instruction in figure skating, hockey, or basic technique. The rink is now a full regulation size rink and measures 200'x85' and includes large indoor heated changing areas and food concessions.
