the most iconic rinks in the world. Skating here gets you a front-row seat to the Rockefeller Tree and a chance to

"This is the most "iconic" ice skating rink in New York City. I've seen many proposals take place here. But the price varies drastically. Tickets start at $20 for adults/children and $8 for “tots” (ages 5 and under). They increase depending on day and time. During peak hours, tickets cost $54. Rental of Skates is $10. It's not a large rink, and has front row views of the Rockefeller Christmas Tree. Highly recommend you buy tickets in advance on their website (below)."
