But you don't need to wait until then to take a turn on the ice.
Thanks to a $147,500 state government grant, the ice skating rink will stay in Curtis Park until May 29, and the operators are accepting Parent NSW and Discover NSW vouchers.
Ice rink sessions will run daily from 10am to 9pm and tickets are available for purchase from www.bigchill.com.au.
