Public skating and lessons most days. It's the home rink of three ice hockey teams, playing Sep-March: Dundee Stars are in the Elite Ice Hockey League, the UK top tier. Dundee Comets and Dundee Tigers play in the Scottish National League, the second tier.
Dundee Ice Arena, a multifaceted ice rink facility, is situated in the Camperdown locality of Dundee, Scotland. Boasting a seating capacity of 2,400, it ranks as the fourth largest ice rink in Scotland, surpassed only by Braehead Arena, Murrayfield Ice Rink, and Fife Ice Arena.

"The Dee" play at Dens Park (capacity 11,000) aka "Kilmac Stadium". They play in the Scottish Premiership, the top tier.
In the 19th century you just had to have jute. Curtains and carpets and blankets, hard-wearing clothing. Satchels and roof felt, ropes of all kinds, sails for ships, tents for soldiers and seasonal farm workers. The raw material is a coarse flax that grows in Bengal: it was processed here because Dundee had fast ships to import it, whale oil to make it soft and workable, flax-weaving technology, and then again the fast ships to export finished goods globally. The city's mill owners grew very rich; the mill workers didn't, nor did the Bengalis. Verdant Works, built in 1833, was one of many jute factories here. Many of them still stand, converted into offices and apartments, while Verdant was turned into a museum in 1996. Volunteers demonstrate the clanking machinery.
Mostly light fare: musicals, tribute acts, light opera and comedy.
