MATINEE SESSIONS
Afternoon/Evening All Ages – All Levels Welcome
Matinee Sessions are our earlier All Ages offerings. Often beginning in the afternoon or at sunset, these sessions are the prefer time to enjoy the San Diego golden hour in an outdoor, open-air environment. These sessions are the perfect place to move and groove in the daylight hours on our smooth concrete skating surface. Our sound system will keep you bumping with an All Ages friendly mix of music from Pop, R&B, Hip Hop and Old School.
Bring the kids after school, come down for a safe distanced meet up with friends, or just bring your skates on your own to work on a skills in a smooth and controlled, lighted environment. You can find our weekly Matinee Session offerings on the schedule. Reservations and masks required. Purchase a Matinee Punch Card to register for one of these sessions.
