Inside Rutland Arena
Rutland Arena is Kelowna’s go-to spot for ice skating and local hockey action, situated on Dodd Road in the Rutland neighborhood. This community rink serves up a straightforward, family-friendly environment where locals come to skate, watch junior hockey, and grab a casual bite.
Whether you’re lacing up for some weekend skating or catching a Kelowna Chiefs junior B hockey game, the arena offers a bright, lively atmosphere that tends to be most bustling when games are in session or family skate hours are on.

Skate rentals and on-site sharpening services add convenience, especially for first-timers or tournament visitors traveling light. Parents appreciate this, especially during tournaments, where the arena supports local youth sports with practical amenities. The friendly staff in the skate shop often go out of their way to help, which can be a relief when skate issues arise mid-game.
