A blizzard isn’t something you expect to find in outback NSW, but that’s exactly what Brewarrina is in for this week with the Brewarrina Blizard ice skating rink in town, just in time for the school holidays.
The huge 600 square metre ice skating rink, with the capacity to host up to 100 skaters at a time, will be right in the middle of town for the whole week, from Monday July 8 to Sunday July 14, offering locals, travellers and the entire region this free school holiday experience.
Brewarrina Shire Council General Manager David Kirby said he was thrilled this incredible experience was back in Bre this year.
“An ice-skating rink is definitely not something you’d expect to find in our little outback town,” Mr Kirby said.
“It’s something you’d usually have to travel hundreds and hundreds of kilometres to experience. So we are very excited to have the rink here, and completely free, for the second year running.
