For the first time in a decade, ICE SKATING is returning to the heart of downtown St. Louis!
THE RINK AT MONSANTO GROVE AT PEABODY OPERA HOUSE will open Friday, November 25th at 4pm thru January 16, 2012. 
Nestled in the park directly opposite the newly re-opened Opera House (on Market Street bet 14th and 15th Streets), the specially designed rink will operate seven days a week, featuring skate rentals, music, and light food and beverage. Folks visiting the city from near and far during the holidays will now have a brand new destination for frozen winter fun, with the breathtaking Opera House as a backdrop. A host of seasonal highlights and special promotions -- including youth hockey clinics,  “Late Skates” (following all Blues Saturday night hockey games) and special offers for families attending the Opera House’s production of “Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas”  -- will make this a very a one-of-a-kind setting for skaters (and spectators!) of all ages. Special rates are also available for groups and holiday entertaining. Upon opening, rink info and updates will be available at peabodyoperahouse.com.
