Lace Up for a Spin Around Viejas' Giant Holiday Ice Rink

At 10,000 square feet, the Viejas Outlets ice rink is larger than the world-famous rink at Rockefeller Center in New York. It's open now for the holiday season.

A Southern California holiday tradition returns as Viejas Outlets reopens its giant outdoor ice rink in the foothills east of San Diego.

The 10,000-square-foot ice rink, which is larger than the world-famous rink in Rockefeller Center, attracted more than 33,000 visitors last season. Its 2,500-foot elevation makes for a wintery atmosphere.

“Our elevation provides a combination of mild temperatures with a bit of a nip in the air, which makes for great skating conditions and a wonderful holiday feel for shoppers,” says Viejas Outlets General Manager Peter Cortese.
