New to skating, or just getting back into it, and you don't have skates and/or a helmet to participate? Skate and helmet rentals are now available at Joshua's Creek Arenas, Maple Grove Arena, River Oaks Community Centre, and Sixteen Mile Sports Complex during all recreational skates.

Costs are $6 for skates, $3 per helmet, or $7 for a combo rental. Please note: Only cash payments are accepted at Maple Grove Arena.

A driver's license, passport, birth certificate, or citizenship card is required to rent skates and/or helmets. ID will be held until equipment is returned. Quantities and sizes are limited. Regular recreational skating admission fees, rules and capacity restrictions apply.

Participants must wear skates for admission to public skating. Helmets are strongly recommended. For more information about the importance of helmets visit the Concussion Awareness page.

The Town of Oakville would like to thank the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport for their assistance towards the Skate and Helmet rental service and the Make Your Move program.
