Ice Skating at Bryant Park:

If you're looking for some ice skating options in midtown Manhattan, but want to avoid the lines and crowds at Rockefeller Center's Ice Rink, ice skating on The Pond in Bryant Park can be a good choice. Bryant Park's ice rink is nicely sized and if you have your own skates, it's free to enjoy skating in one of New York City's great parks. Sponsored by Citibank, skating and lockers are free, but you'll have to pay if you need to rent skates($12) or if you want to check bags ($7) or need to buy a lock for your locker($10). Still, you'll be able to enjoy as much time as you like skating (unlike Rockefeller Center, where rental rates are per session). If you're not skating, you can enjoy the Fetes de Noel holiday market or refuel with some refreshments and snacks at The Pond Snack Shop or Celsius: A Canadian Lounge, both located adjacent to the skating rink.
