Eric Sharp arena and outdoor skating rinks
Skate indoors and out!

You are here
Skating enthusiasts can enjoy their favourite sport both indoors, at the Eric Sharp arena, and outdoors during the winter months on one of our outdoor rinks.
Arena
Don’t put your skates away yet!
Warmer temperatures rule out outdoor skating for this season, but you still have a few weeks left to don your skates and enjoy the ice at Éric-Sharp Arena. The arena will be open for public activities until Saturday, June 12, inclusive. It will then close for the summer.
Remember that before heading to the arena, you must register via the recreational activity registration module.
Wearing a mask is mandatory.
Skating fans: the ice is yours!
From September to April, public skating is offered every week at the arena. The entrance is free.
You will have to reserve a skating time slot beforehand via the activities registration module before going to one of the arena (consult the online reservation procedure). No one will be admitted without a reservation even if there are places available. Time slots marked “Public figure skating” are reserved for unattended figure skaters only (able to skate without adult supervision). No free skaters will be admitted.
Please note that the arena seating and changing rooms will not be accessible. Whenever possible, it is recommended that you arrive wearing your skates, with skate guards. If necessary, however, you may use the players’ benches.
WHEN TO RESERVE?
Reservations can be made between 9 a.m. the day before up until one hour before the desired time slot. Given the limited number of places, we ask you to limit yourself to one time slot per day.
Cancelling a reservation
If you are unable to come to the pool after you have reserved a spot, we encourage you to cancel your reservation to free up the spot for someone else. To cancel a reservation, call 450 466-3890.
