PHILADELPHIA - The Rothman Orthopaedics Roller Rink at Dilworth Park offers an afternoon filled with magic, merriment and roller skates! The Wizards and Witches skate will occur from 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm this Saturday May 13th 2023. It will include roller Quidditch, themed snacks in the Air Grille Garden, and free activities for children. Costumes are encouraged.


While supplies last, every skater will get a free giveaway, such as wands, wizard glasses, or temporary tattoos. Children can learn how to use charms by creating a craft for "potion classes". All wizards and witches will be required to recite an aloud spell at the end of every skating session for a surprise.

All participants will play roller Quidditch during every skate session. Each player has the opportunity to score in motion. If a goal is not scored, that player will be eliminated. The top three players will remain until they are eliminated. The winners will receive gift cards for the Air Grille Garden.

The Philadelphia Quidditch conference will be on site to help with the roller games. They will act as "Keepers." Additional Quidditch goals will also be available in the park for people to enjoy at their own leisure.

The Air Grille Garden's standard menu will be complemented by a few new items, such as Butter Beer soda, "Felix Felicis Potion", the Sirius Black Bean Burger, and Diag’onion’ Alley Rings.

Skating is only permitted with a valid Rothman Roller Rink Ticket. It is recommended that you order online in advance. Visit rothmanrink.ticketsocket.com to reserve your spot today.

The event may be cancelled or postponed depending on the weather.
