PPG Place is such a nice part of downtown, especially during the holidays. During the holidays, it’s so nice to see kids skating on the ice rink and people around it taking pics with significant others, friends and family. I also love seeing the beautiful tree and love how it lights up in all different colors and shapes. It’s also a nice space for things like Picklssburgh and other events in Pittsburgh. It’s a good space for vendors and booths for people to explore local specialties. I also love looking at PPG’s beautiful building. It really makes downtown special.

Very nice place to visitMy family enjoyed Walk around and make pictures Better in sunny day, we were at night there was too dark with minimum lights

The buildings there were so beautifully decorated and shone very brightly at night. I didn’t even know that it was a home to a sports team hahaha, we were there for the Christmas tree and ice skating. The set up seems cool but for a country village. It was rather small and packed and I have 2 small children who would have loved to venture out on the ice, but with so many people, it was not a place to let them learn. It seems like it’s more for younger couples. The Christmas tree was very nice, but that’s about it for us.

We took a group of college students to ice skate at PPG, and it was a wonderful experience. Booking online and pre-paying for the tickets was easy and cost-effective. The tickets allow you to stay for 90 minutes, which is more than enough time. We left early because it was very cold, but the students still enjoyed themselves. They were able to skate for a while, and then go inside the building for a bit to warm up before heading back out for another round. Because it was January, we did not get to see the tree, which I would love to see sometime, but the crowds were small, making it easy and fun to skate there. I have to comment on the staff - they were a group of young people who were very efficient and friendly to all of us. I had an issue with a locker, and one young man went out of his way to help me. Whether it was changing out multiple skates for size issues or answering questions, they had endless patience and respect. When we visited last year, we had a student with a disability with us, and the staff was the same - so helpful, accommodating, and positive. Being downtown in PPG Place is a beautiful atmosphere, and being able to ice skate there and have fun is definitely something I feel that everyone should try at least once. Many thanks to the staff there and those who maintain this beautiful place in our city. We will be back again!

I took my mom, my daughter, and our foreign exchange student from Germany & everyone loved it. Our student said it would be hard to beat with any other activity. The skating was very organized and the whole area was very clean. We even went right down the street for some sushi when we were done. A great ‘girls day out’ for the holidays
