The event will feature 3-on-3 scrimmages every 20 minutes and three Toronto Maple Leafs NHL alumni, including Dan Daoust, Mike Krushelnyski, and Nik Antropov. 

In 2021, the rink was upgraded with a series of impressive improvements, including an updated lighting system, customized outdoor weatherproof lights, moving beam lights, and a mini Zamboni made specifically for smaller-sized rinks.

"It's all about the people," owner David Weiss previously told blogTO. "Meeting new people and having the people that experienced The Rink of Dreams last season come back for more. The Rink of Dreams helped us develop so many new friends and friendships that are precious and priceless."

"We wanted to combine the indoor ice experience which comes with lighting, sound and perfect ice with the outdoor ice experience which comes with breathtaking views."
