Arena

The Marathon Arena is proud to host the Marathon Mercs Minor Hockey teams and the Marathon Figure Skating Club.

Throughout the ice season, the arena comes alive with practices, tournaments, performances, public skating, special events, and rentals.

The ice is now out for the season. We will reopen in August, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone back for another exciting season!

During the 2024/2025 season, Public Skating and Shinny were fully sponsored. Thank you to our generous community sponsors for making free skating possible. We are now seeking sponsors for the 2025/2026 season. If you'd like to support accessible recreation in Marathon, please get in touch!

Stay connected: Next season’s schedules will be posted on our Facebook page,
Town of Marathon & Recreation, and on the calendar.
