Looking for a cool way to throw a birthday bash or a special gathering? The Bloomington Ice Garden (BIG) is ready to slide into your event plans with an offer that's hard to ignore. The venue, known for its icy allure, is putting on its party hat, providing one hour of private ice time for guests, a dedicated room for the occasion, and complimentary rental skates to keep everyone on their feet—or at least, trying to be.

But it's not just about lacing up and trying not to suddenly embrace the rink—though there's undoubtedly a charm in that. If you want to up the ante and provide a more guided experience for your guests, BIG also has skating instructors available to break down the barrier between total novice and graceful glider, for an additional cost. And let's be realistic, no festive occasion is complete without nibbles and sips; those too can be arranged for an extra fee, as reported by a recent announcement from the venue.

For those looking to turn ice skating from a once-in-a-blue-moon fling into a regular twirl, BIG is also offering group skating classes this fall. Scribble down the date because registration opens on August 19, giving you and yours plenty of time to plan ahead. Classes commence September 24, giving everyone from toddlers to seniors the chance to glide, spin, or simply avoid face-planting on the ice.

Interested in hosting your event at BIG or joining the skating classes? You can simply call them at 952-563-8841 or fire off an email to [email protected] for all the frosty details. Just remember, with the intimate touch of a birthday song echoing through the cold air and the laughter of friends skating by, BIG offers more than just ice—it offers an unforgettable backdrop for those cherished memories.
