ANNOUNCEMENT
As many of you are aware we have experienced a major problem with our refrigeration plant. The management have worked very hard to resolve the issue but it appears the equipment needed to make the ice is beyond repair. The logistical and technical challenges that this site presents, particularly the reliance upon external diesel power generation, have taken their toll on our chiller plant. As replacement equipment would be subject to the same conditions we have been advised that it is not viable to continue operating from this location. We have instructed contractors to dismantle and remove the rinks and as a result the Arena on Bristol Avenue will be closed permanently.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our customers, staff and coaching team for their support over the past 3 years and hope that you continue your involvement in skating and make use of alternative rinks located in our region including Blackpool Pleasure Beach Arena and Blackburn Arena.
