Residents in the majority of the nation have ample opportunities when it comes to enjoying quintessential activities during winter in Mississippi, like sledding and ice skating. Unfortunately for us residents of the Magnolia State, the options are either slim or completely non-existent. Luckily, ice skating in Mississippi falls into the first category. There aren’t many rinks, but there is one place you can partake in the classic cold-weather activity. Take a look at some of the best ice skating in Biloxi:

Located in Biloxi, the Mississippi Coast Coliseum and Convention Center is the largest beachfront facility of its kind in the South.

It's a bastion of family fun all year, but in the winter, things REALLY get going.
Throughout the year, the massive venue plays host to Broadway productions, comedians, professional sports, rodeos, festivals, circuses, and world-class musical performances.

It's undoubtedly a delight no matter what you're into; you're sure to find more than a few activities and events you'll love.

Due to COVID, there have been a few changes put in place, such as limiting the number of skaters allowed on the ice (which honestly is pretty nice, considering fewer crowds).
In order to skate, you’ll have to purchase a ticket, which is $13 and includes admission and skate rental.

Each ticket gets you access to one skate session, which lasts 90 minutes, giving you plenty of time on the ice.
For an extra special treat, consider heading to the rink for one of its special events, like Skating with Santa or a “theme night.”
