New Durban Ice Arena promises family fun
With summer a few months away, Durbanites will have another way to cool down.
The old Durban ice rink is planning to reopen its doors next week.
The 60-year-old entertainment arena, situated near Durban's north beach, was closed in 2009.
Just under two years ago, work to revamp it began.
Sastri Ramiah, who's been managing the project, says they're excited about what the rink will offer.
"Essentially, if somebody wants to have fun and wants a timeout outside of the normal things they do - they can come to the Durban Ice Arena. The kids can be skating while the parents can be socialising, enjoying the great food and entertainment that will be provided at the end," he said.
The ice rink will be open to the public next week Thursday.
