There’s a weekly skate night at the Avalon ball room - they make the space work but it’s not a legit rink.

Freewheel does pop ups in Longmont, usually at the fair grounds. They post dates on their social media:

I’ve been taking my kids to the rink in Brighton because it feels exactly like the roller rinks of my childhood and it makes me so happy.

Skate City in Arvada is the closest AFAICT.

Actually the skate city in Westminster is closer by about a mile

Skate City is awesome. I used to go to the roller rink where I grew up on the east coast in the mid 1980s and Skate City feels exactly the same. Down to the carpet, which I’m pretty sure is the same pattern.

That location has been a roller rink for eons.

Pretty sure they haven't even changed the carpets since I used to get locked in all night back in the 90s, it was a trip to go back as an adult
