Port of Everett unveils seasonal ice rink on the waterfront
EVERETT — Visitors to Everett’s waterfront will now have a new attraction to look forward to each winter.
The Port of Everett planned to unveil “Pacific Ice,” a new outdoor ice rink, on Saturday at Pacific Rim Plaza. From now to Jan. 31, visitors can slide and twirl in view of both the waterfront and the port’s 35-foot-tall “frozen fountain” light display.
Port spokesperson Catherine Soper said staff have talked about hosting a seasonal rink for years.
“We are just growing the destination waterfront, adding new developments, adding new housing, adding new retail and restaurants. And we want to expand the offerings into the winter months with something like this (rink),” Soper said. “We loved the idea of bringing this (rink) down here, having it feel very whimsical where you can overlook the marina.”

But from Christmas Eve to Jan. 2, hours will be 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. Tickets, including entry and skate rentals, are $15 for adults and $12 for kids.
