Rome's Olympic-size rink in Mentana, open since 1984

The Palaghiaccio Mezzaluna in Mentana, on the edge of Rome, was the first ice palace in central-southern Italy. It opened in 1984 with strong backing from CONI, the Italian Olympic Committee, and became a training centre for Italian Olympians such as Silvia Fontana.

The regulation rink measures 30 by 60 metres and can hold up to 1000 people. The rink describes its ice as 1,800 square metres and itself as the only Olympic-size rink in the capital. The building reopened in September 2015 under the company Ghiaccio Mezzaluna.

Its skating school has more than 300 pupils, and some of its skaters have been picked for the list of probable Olympians for the Milano-Cortina Games. It also fields the only ice hockey teams in its area that are active all year. During the free-skating season the rink is dressed as a Halloween village, then a Christmas village from mid-November.
