No Upcoming Events
We're sorry, but we couldn't find any upcoming events for Skate Canada. Please check back soon.
Everything went really smoothly and well. Too bad that the place wasn't fully occupied. I don't think that it's honouring the event to have so many empty seats. We enjoyed our seats and thr screens were a great help too.
The actual skating was phenomenal but the Saskatel Centre could use some tips. The event was not sold out but since they hardly any concessions open, there were still huge lineups for everything. When you fly to Saskatoon to see skating, you don't want to miss competitors because you're standing in line. The choice in food was also terrible. Grease, grease or donuts. Your choice!
Loved the whole experience. Figure skating was phenomenal and all the staff were helpful and friendly.
More figure skating in Halifax please! This was absolutely outstanding.
We went for the 3 days and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the skating!
- skaters were awesome - needed more leg room in the seating area - would have liked a souvenir booklet or some other souvenir
- Loved the performances - not a lot of leg room in the seating area - would have liked a booklet for a souvenir Or some other items
The skating was phenomenal, but the venue was lacking a lot of key needs . There was only one vendor open for most of the weekend which meant long lineups and missing out on some of the programs. You either had to leave before an event was over to beat the lineup or compromise and miss the beginning of the next event because you were stuck in the lineup. To say it was very frustrating would be an understatement and very disappointing in Skate Canada for not recognizing the needs of their fans attending the event. I was also very disappointed in the poor turnout. Lack of advertising and word-of-mouth meant the smallest crowd I’ve ever seen for a Skate Canada event in Halifax. I myself is a long time supporter of figure skating only found out about the event a month ago. I do not listen to the radio or read a newspaper. You need to learn the benefits of using other social media avenues. Larger crowds always make for a much better event.
What a treat to have such a high-class international skating event in Halifax. More figure skating is what people want!! ⛸️
The event was great, but the elevated judges platform was a real problem for anyone sitting behind it. You couldn’t see the skaters when they were near the boards on that side. I ended up buying an extra ticket soon could sit on the other side.
