The Rochester Ice Center is a multi-purpose sports facility located in Fairport, NY. Home to the Rochester Jr. Americans and St. John Fisher Men’s and Women’s Hockey Programs, the Ice Center’s core goal is to provide visitors with a clean and enjoyable venue to take in a hockey game, figure skating show, public skate, or any on ice event.

In pursuit of this goal the Rochester Ice center has recently undergone a major venue update and expansion. The center has officially concluded the construction of a brand-new rink, giving them three total sheets of ice that are fully operational 365 days a year.

This all-new premier rink has the ability to accommodate up to 2,200 people and includes a 4,500 sq ft, full-service restaurant and bar known as the Great American Wing Company.

The newly added rink will become home to St. John Fisher College Division III Women’s and Men’s Hockey Programs along with the Rochester Jr. Americans Youth Program and a number of the NAHL Jr. Americans larger games and championships.

“We have a five-year-plan that will involve many new aspects of programming, excitement, and entertainment, and we are working through those different elements as we speak,” said Shawn O’Donnell, Management Executive at the Rochester Ice Center. “Our goal is to bring top notch boy’s and girl’s hockey programming to the area and to really thrive on the talent that they are bringing forth.”

O’Donnell went on to say that the Ice Center is also currently working on adding an outdoor ice rink that we can expect to see within the next few years. With the ability to be converted into a turf field, the outdoor rink would enable the Rochester Ice Center to accommodate spring and summer sports as well.

This expansion — along with future developments – is intended to enhance the visitor experience and make sure that the Ice Center remains a top-notch venue for hockey tournaments and public skate sessions.

Currently, the Rochester Ice Center offers several well-established programs, including:
