Leipzig Becomes the Roller Skating Metropolis: A Summer Event Not to Miss
Get ready for an exciting roller skating extravaganza in Leipzig! From August 16 to September 20, 2025, the city will transform into a roller skating paradise with the "Sommer-Rollschuhspaß" event on the Augustusplatz[1].
This event will feature Europe's largest mobile round roller skate rink, measuring a diameter of 35 meters and boasting a running surface of 885 m2[2]. Admission to the roller skating area is free, making it an accessible and fun activity for all.
For those who don't own roller skates, don't worry! Rental is available on-site for a small fee, with costs of 8 € for adults and 6 € for children[3]. If you prefer to bring your own skates, using your own, clean roller skates for skating costs 5 €[4].
The grand opening ceremony is scheduled for August 16, starting at 5 PM, and will include a performance by Noah Hirsch, a German figure skater specializing in roller figure skating[1]. Hirsch, who has been on roller skates since the age of four, has won several German and vice-champion titles[5]. Another yet-to-be-revealed act will also perform during the grand opening, promising an unforgettable start to the event.
As the evening sets in, the roller skating rink transforms into a roller skating disco, with suitable music and atmospheric lighting[6]. A gastro village will offer a diverse range of food and drinks during the event, ensuring that visitors stay energized and refreshed throughout the night.
Bags are not allowed on the rink, but lockers are available for a small fee[2]. Only roller skates are allowed on the rink, with inline skates or others not permitted[7].
The roller skating rink is conveniently located at Augustusplatz Leipzig, directly in front of the opera[8]. For more information, visit the official website at www.rollon-leipzig.de[9].
