As temperatures hover around 80 degrees in the Sonoran Desert, Tucson residents are embracing the holiday spirit with an icy twist. Tucson Holiday Ice , a seasonal pop-up ice rink, officially opened its doors for the fifth consecutive year on Sunday, November 24, outside the Tucson Convention Center .“This is such a unique experience,” said Rich, a Tucson resident.
”Growing up in Tucson, Samantha Matthey found ice skating later in life but instantly grew fascinated.“It started by watching TikTok and seeing all these figure skaters and I’m like ‘why am I not doing this with my life,” Matthey said. “I grew up dancing my whole life, so movements the goal.”While Matthey typically visits Phoenix every week to ice skate, she was able to bring her niece along on Sunday to try out the rink. She says the experience evoked the holidays.
