This past November, Discovery Green returned its Green Mountain Energy Ice to the foot of the Houston skyline. While many of Houston’s wintry activations might lose their luster after Christmas, Ice at Discovery Green is just getting the fun started. Kicking off this January, Discovery Green is unlocking their Bumper Cars on Ice experience.
This past holiday season, Discovery Green reopened its ever popular Green Mountain Energy Ice rink. Throughout its activation, the ice rink hosts a variety of themed skate nights for skaters of all ages and skill levels.
Today, January 2, Bumper Cars on Ice returns to Green Mountain Energy Ice until February 18, 2026. Bumper Cars on Ice! is taking over the rink, turning the traditional skating experience into a high-speed, slippery showdown. Strap into a specialized tube and prepare to skid, spin, and slam your way across the ice for just $20 (plus tax) per session.
Secure your spot on the ice by heading to the Discovery Green website, where tickets are available starting at $18 plus tax. Each pass grants you a 75-minute session to skate under the Houston skyline. Just keep in mind that all tickets must be purchased online in advance, as on-site sales are only available for those attending the park’s inclusive skate nights.
Discovery Green urges ticket holders to arrive at least 10 minutes prior to their scheduled ice time. Only one person per car is allowed.
Tickets must be purchased online.
Bumper Cars on Ice is available at the Green Mountain Energy Ice rink at Discovery Green from now until February 18. The experience is available from 6 pm to 10 pm Monday through Thursday, from 6 pm to 11 pm on Fridays, and from 6 pm to 8 pm on Sundays.
The ice rink is located at 1500 McKinney St, Houston, TX 77010.
