Fife Ice Arena (originally known as Kirkcaldy Ice Rink) opened in 1938. Kirkcaldy Ice Rink was designed by architects Williamson & Hubbard.
A community ice arena for families, skaters, and ice sports lovers βοΈ
Public sessions, learn-to-skate, clubs, and events throughout the year.
π§ [email protected] Fife Ice Arena is the home venue of the oldest Ice Hockey team in the UK - the Fife Flyers. It is also a venue for public skating, figure skating, speed skating, curling and ice shows. The arena has also hosted concerts, boxing, w
restling, motorcycle ice speedway and other events such as dog shows. The Fife Free Press dated February 2, 1938, announced 30,000 ordinary shares at 1d each in a proposed new rink in the townβ25,000 shares were offered for subscription. On February 17, plans to build the rink in the Gallatown were presented to, and approved by, Kirkcaldy Dean of Guilds Court. The one-storey building contained seating for 4,500 and would cost Β£37,000 to construct. To put that figure into context the town's fire station, also opened that year, cost Β£15,000. The building was to have a carcass of steel stanchions and a roof span of 145 feet without any supporting pillars except those at the extremities, making it the widest construction of its kind in Scotland at the time. The rink's ground level would consist of an entrance hall, general office, booking office, confectioners and tobacconist, cloakroom with provision for a large restaurant, and a milk bar. Facilities also included dressing rooms with spray baths, while immediately above the entrance was the boardroom, bandstand and manager's office. The plans also had a touch of classβthe restaurant featured Parker-Knoll chairs, curtains designed by Dame Laura Knight, as well as monogrammed cutlery. Much of the work was carried out by local tradesmen, including plumber James Blyth, while the original sound system came from E. Donaldson of Kirk Wynd. The builder was James Ramsay of Leslie, while joiner D. Mitchell & Sons, also of Leslie, worked on the roof. Fife Ice Arena (FIA) is located on Rosslyn Street in the North East area of Kirkcaldy known as Gallatown. FIA is approximately 1 mile from the A92, 2 miles from the railway station and town centre.

ποΈ TICKETING UPDATE ποΈ
We are aware that some supporters faced lengthy queues last night and, unfortunately, missed the opening stages of our thrilling win over the Kyiv Capitals.
An unexpected technical issue resulted in tickets being taken offline earlier than planned, while payment-processing delays meant some transactions took longer than usual.
The exceptionally high attendance was unprecedented in recent times for a pre-season fixture and once again demonstrated the incredible loyalty and enthusiasm of the Fife Flyers support.
These issues have now been addressed ahead of tonightβs game:
* Game-night tickets will remain on sale online until 7pm.
* The Box Office will be open from 11.30am until 1.30pm.
* The Box Office will reopen at 5.30pm ahead of face-off, with additional staff on hand.
* A separate queue will be available for supporters collecting tickets purchased in advance.
* Supporters are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance and arrive as early as possible.
To any fans with issues with 4 game passes, please contact [email protected] who will assist you on getting this fixed.
We greatly appreciate the patience shown by supporters last night and look forward to welcoming another fantastic crowd to Fife Ice Arena tonight.
