Skate Into the New Year with Avalon on Ice

Okay, okay—we know we’re supposed to focus on INDOOR family fun here—but we do live in the South after all. If there happens to be a particularly sunny day, or if you’re impervious to chilly weather, you may be looking for an excuse to get outdoors. We would be remiss to skip the ever-popular Avalon on Ice. This monumental Rockefeller-inspired ice-skating rink is open through January 17, 2022, at the Plaza at Avalon. Rent a pair of ice skates and glide across the ice while lights twinkle across the sky overhead in this Avalon winter wonderland. We recommend booking your timeslot in advance to make sure you’re set for smooth sailing (or skating in this case).
With all the family fun readily available in Alpharetta, you’ll wish you could stay overnight and keep the fun going all week long. Luckily, with 30 modern, family-friend hotels, finding lodging accommodations that fit your needs is as easy as ABC in Alpharetta.
