Krakow active in winter

Skates on!
Outdoor ice rinks and the only curling lane in Małopolska in an underground parking lot - these are the attractions that Tauron Arena Krakow offers for the winter of 2021. Already on Friday, December 3 will be launched a fair, during which local producers will offer Christmas products.
An outdoor ice rink has been built right next to the arena from the side of Polish Aviators Park and will be open daily from 9 am to 9 pm from December 3, 2021, until the end of February. There will also be toilets, a changing room for changing shoes with lockers, and equipment rental, also for the youngest.
