Currently out of season The City of Madison Parks Division's ice skating page says "All ice rinks and designated skating lagoons are closed for the season" and lists every rink as Closed for Season; no 2026-27 opening date is posted. The City opens a rink or lagoon only after assessing the ice, and its warming shelters typically staff skate rentals and concessions through early to mid-February once the ice is open. The City's ice skating page lists Vilas (Henry) Park Ice Skating (Closed for Season); Vilas (Henry) Park Frozen Lagoon (Closed for Season); Vilas (Henry) Park Hockey Rink (Closed for Season).
