The Ice Arena, built in 1970, is a family friendly facility serving both the university community and outlying communities. There are two ice surfaces: the Main Rink measuring 200' X 85' and the Rec Rink measuring 150' X 80'. Recreational skating, figure skating, ice hockey, birthday parties, and private rentals are just a few things to consider while at the Ice Arena. The Ice Arena offers a multi-purpose meeting room, skate sharpening, and a full service snack bar which accepts KSU Flashcards.  The Ice Arena is home to the Kent State ACHA Hockey Team and the Kent State Figure Skating Team. It is also home to six area high school teams, a figure skating club and a youth hockey program.
