My mom and I went to the show this past week. We both were figure skaters have had shows that we have enjoyed or been less impressed by but this performance was simply AMAZING. A mux of excitement and crowds clapping to a couple performances which had us both tear up a bit. Highly recommend
The show was lack lustre or more simply put boring. There was no excitement or enthusiasm from the performers. It was described as the Holiday Show for Christmas…they did not deliver on any aspects.
Super great all around. Stadium about half fullm. Really thought it would have sold out fast considering the talent involved. Has Canada lost interest in figure stating? It would have sold out in 2019. I know covid has stopped many from coming out, sadly as it was a night of amazing skating with a Christmas twist ! Music was also great but would be better to have a live band.
What a a Fabulous Show! My family enjoyed this night out too. Would definitely see them again 💕
We really enjoyed Stars On Ice in Abbotsford BC. Elvis Stojko was original as always, Kurt Browning was funny, all the skaters did beautiful programs individually and ensemble. Well worth attending.
Overall, it was a fun first experience. I would definitely sit in row 5 again because of how close the skaters were and the price. I liked the Abbotsford venue too for it's cleanilness and nice staff (food prices weren't as high as Rogers!) However, I don't know who was in charge of lighting but it would leave some skaters in the dark. Who knows if that is a venue problem or Stars on Ice staffing. Sometimes I would be looking at the wrong place when someone else was doing something cooler. It was only 3 stage lights so I guess they wouldn't focus on everyone during the group events. I sat on the section 100 side. Also, I think the signed photos of the skaters were unflattering lol. It would've been helpful if they had a sign up indicating what they were selling and price.
The overall experience was awesome. The skaters were exciting and entertaining. The staff at Abbotsford Arena were exceptional in wanting to help anyway possible. Easy parking just a relaxed time even with an hours drive each way. We did hope for keepsake souvenirs offers like coffee mugs, tshirts etc and did not find that.
These skaters are so talented and were out on the ice having fun. So beautiful to watch!
Very much enjoyed the performances. Lovely way to spend an evening.
