It’s Christmas time in NY, and the Bank of America Winter Village at Bryant Park is where it’s at! For the 22nd year, there will be an ice skating rink, a huge holiday market, and a festive bar and food hall. No wonder it’s been named one of the best holiday attractions in the world.

The rink is the largest, free ice skating rink in New York. You can reserve your skating time to make sure you have time to glide.

Whether or not you spend time on the ice, you can relax at The Lodge, where you can eat and drink while watching skaters from the rinkside or overlooking the gigantic Christmas tree.

The Holiday Shops by Urbanspace Markets is another huge draw, and boasts more than 180 new and returning merchants in an open-air holiday market. New this year is the Small Business Spotlight presented by Bank of America, where four New York City minority-owned small businesses, with annual revenue of $1 million or less, will showcase their products in a rent-free shop for about two weeks each. The businesses will be announced soon.

The entrance to Bryant Park is between 40th and 42nd streets, along 6th Avenue, in New York City. The Rink and The Lodge will be open daily from October 27 through March 3, 2024. The Holiday Shops will be open daily from October 27 through January 2, 2024. Opening day hours are noon to 10 pm on October 27.
