We will definitely be back! The show was great as it had our favorite skaters, loved the cast, meet and greet was very well organized.
Great time! Lots of fun, great atmosphere, skaters do a great job of entertaining.
This year's Stars On Ice was nicely done.
Stars on Ice delivered an entertaining night of ice skating. They did a nice mix of single skaters and group numbers including several holiday oriented numbers. I would recommend this show to anyone who enjoys ice skating.
