Ice Skating and Hockey

This long-beloved tradition arrives every November and sticks around for the entirety of the season. For skating in the heart of Downtown KC, head to Crown Center Ice Terrace, the perfect way to take in impressive winter wonderland sights at Crown Center.

Other popular ice skating rinks in the KC metro include:

Skiing and Tubing

The go-to spot for all downhill snow activities in the Kansas City area is Snow Creek, an expansive operation that offers skiing, snowboarding, tubing and riding services.

The best part? The Weston-based Snow Creek relies on artificial snow, which means that you don’t have to worry about checking the forecast for accumulation before your big day on the slopes. In between sessions, head indoors to warm up and enjoy food from the café.

Curling

Yes, curling! The sport that reemerges into public consciousness every four years during the Winter Olympics is more accessible than ever thanks to KC Curling Club.

Located northwest of Downtown KC, the club’s facility is open for newbies to learn the sport and for experienced curlers to compete in leagues year-round.
