University of Illinois Ice Arena, Illinois, United States


4.5 (24 reviews) Spent Ranking #10 in Champaign-Urbana Arenas & Stadiums

Great hockey game, great seats, great price

While visiting our son at U of I, my family decided to attend a hockey game. The experience brought my wife and me back to our college days. The experience was quite enjoyable and one that. I will remember for many years, by the way, the Illinois defeated Eastern Michigan, 7 to 0.

    Nice!
    Went ice skating with friends. First time ever! Got to play bloomball (or something like that) too. The place was really cold but what else would you expect from an Ice Arena.

    Fantastic Indoor Activity for Kids During Winter Months
    I started taking my 3 year old here for the lunch time skate (between 11a-1230p) as it is far less crowded than the weekend skates and allowed us more space to "practice" falling and working on skating skills. They provide ice walkers to help the more timid kids stay upright (although, this really isn't recommended as a good way to build ice skating skills). Treats and snacks are reasonably priced. We opted not to rent a locker... with so few people there it was easy to keep a close eye on our belongings. Wear gloves, hat and scarf... it is much warmer than the blustery weather outside the rink, but it's easy to feel chilled especially if you're not moving around a lot (as I was with my small child).
