Winterlude’s mascot family, the Ice Hogs, will also be on hand, and members of the public are welcome to join the fun.
The EU-sponsored, pre-Winterlude party runs from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday.
Also in operation during the two-day event will be a European Union Cafe, described as “rustic sanctuary at the rink’s edge.”
The rink is located at 1525 Princess Patricia Way, east of the Aberdeen Pavilion at Lansdowne Park.
