Kirkland Kingsgate Ice Arena

Let your preschooler skate off that cooped up winter energy with a trip to the Kingsgate Ice Arena in Kirkland! Your preschooler can join a ‘learn-to-skate’ program and safely learn to ice skate at his or her own pace, while Mom and Dad watch the ice skating from nearby bleacher seats.
