General skate sessions
Skate Paradise’s ‘Fun Skate’ sessions run several times a week, providing the perfect opportunity to hone your skate skills.
Fun Skate sessions are held throughout the school term on Wednesday mornings (9:30am – 11am), twice on Saturdays (10am – 11:30am and 1pm – 3pm) and on Sunday afternoons (1pm – 3pm).
School & public holidays
In addition to the weekly Fun Skate sessions during the school term, weekday sessions are held at Skate Paradise throughout the school holidays. Choose from half day sessions (10am – 12pm or 1pm – 3pm), or the All Day Skate (10am – 3pm).
‘Super Skate’ sessions are also held on public holidays (12pm – 3pm).
Night time skate
Head to Skate Paradise on a Friday and Saturday nights (7pm – 9:30pm), which includes a ‘dance spot’ session. These night-time events are great for teens, with entry being even better value on presentation of a valid high school ID.
