Construction Completed
Completed in fall 2017, the new Numerica Skate Ribbon and Numerica SkyRide Facility sits on the south edge of Riverfront Park, set to the east and nestled amongst the existing London Plane trees of the Gondola Meadow. This placement creates a more enchanting, more visible recreational park experience for users, while still preserving much of the Gondola Meadow.
Riverfront Park's Numerica Skate Ribbon consists of a 16' wide and 650' long pathway with a 3,500 square foot attached pond. In the wintertime, skaters can experience slight inclines and declines as they make their way around a path of ice surrounded by beautiful Northwest inspired landscape. Complementing the ribbon are large, cozy fire pits for spectators and skates alike to sit around and enjoy a cup of hot cocoa. The Numerica Skate Ribbon shares a ticketing facility with the Numerica SkyRide (opening spring 2018) that includes a café with a variety of delicious food and large windowed dining area. In the warmer months, the paved ribbon transforms to host a wide variety of activities such as roller-skating, strider-biking, art walks, food truck rallies, and much more.
The Numerica Skate Ribbon is open seasonally for either ice skating or roller skating and scooters. Visit the Numerica Skate Ribbon page for the latest hours and information!
