The Toronto Star reports that a pop-up roller-skating rink is taking over a vacant anchor tenant space at Burlington’s Mapleview Centre.
Location of the roller skating rink – scheduled to open mid-February
The company expects to open the rink in the former Decathlon store at the Maple Avenue mall by mid-February.
The pop-up at Mapleview comes a little more than a month after SUSO learned it would be losing its longtime pop-up space at the Oshawa Centre at the end of January to make way for redevelopment.
SUSO Skate Co. is co-owned by Henry O’Brien and Janine Bartels.
It didn’t work as a mammoth sports retail operation. Let’s see how it works as a roller skating rink.
The Burlington location is slated to open Feb. 12, said O’Brien, with SUSO winding down its Oshawa location, which will host its final skate on Jan. 25.
Skaters can book online at susoskateco.com. To celebrate the Burlington roller rink, the first 100 people to book can use the promo code 2FOR1SKATE for a two-for-one discount.
