CITY OF PITTSBURGH ANNOUNCES

CITIPARKS ROLLER-SKATING SESSIONS

Pittsburgh, PA – The City of Pittsburgh is pleased to announce that, 50 years after its opening, the Schenley Park Skating Rink will now offer roller skating all summer long until August 31, 2025. 

Roller skaters can take their first lap at the rink on Friday, May 23, 2025, at 10 AM – 12 PM and 5 PM – 8:30 PM.   

“After working closely with Pittsburgh’s local roller-skating community, we’re excited to roll out something new for 2025 at Schenley Rink,” said Kathryn Vargas, Director of CitiParks. “The organizers of PGH SK8 started hosting roller skate events at the rink and have worked to help us reimagine how we can utilize this facility to offer Pittsburghers an additional fun summer recreational activity in Schenley Park.” 

This programming is made possible with the generous support of the Allegheny Regional Asset District (RAD).
