Inside the facility: Show Me Skate is in the East rink, and you can access the track on the first floor. There is a small bump in the doorway, but it's not a step. To get to the second floor with designated disabled seating, you will find the elevator to the left of the west entrance. The downstairs bathroom only has one designated stall in each. The upstairs bathroom has two designated stalls in each.
Auditory landscape: The East rink of JVIP is a large space that will be loud in a room that’s already difficult to hear in. You might consider bringing sound blockers if sensitive to loud noises or bringing translating devices, if needed. The area outside of the rink tends to be quieter.
