Marietta Ice Center
The Marietta Ice Center is the oldest ice skating rink in metro Atlanta, Georgia. Located in the suburban city of Marietta, Georgia it contains two sheets of ice, a larger rink that is regulation hockey sized, and a smaller rink that is more suitable for open skate.
History
Constructed in the 1970s as part of Parkaire Mall, the surrounding mall was demolished and reopened in 1982 as a standalone building behind Kroger. It was the original practice facility for the Atlanta Flames. The Marietta Ice Center recently underwent $1.5 million in renovations aimed mainly at improving the quality of the ice. Gone are the days of soft wet ice in the summer. With all the work that has been done by new ownership the Marietta Ice Center has some of the best year round ice in Atlanta.
