Newport Skates in Jersey City is opening its rink for the season on Friday, November 21 and is hosting a fun Opening Day + Opening Weekend experience.
There will be free samples from local vendors, and people are welcome to come hang out, enjoy the music and lights, take photos, shop around with the vendors, and soak in the waterfront views β all for free.
For anyone looking to skate without the overwhelming crowds of Manhattan rinks, Newport Skates is a perfect option. Itβs extremely accessible from NYC β just hop on the PATH train and itβs a quick 6-minute walk to the rink. Super easy, especially for people who want that festive winter vibe without the Midtown chaos.
