Planet Ice is a chain of ice rinks in the United Kingdom (UK). The company has historically had a working relationship with the English Ice Hockey Association (EIHA) and several Planet Ice facilities have served as home ice to EIHA teams.
Arenas
There are currently fourteen Planet Ice Arenas in operation in the UK:
Planet Ice Birmingham in Birmingham, West Midlands, closed in 2003 following a fire. The building was reopened in late 2009 by a subsidiary company of Arena Group under the name of The Leisurebox. This venture was unsuccessful and the rink closed again in May 2014.
Until March 2022 Planet Ice also operated a rink in Cannock, Staffordshire. This rink was closed due to non-renewal of the lease.
Future
Heath Rhodes, the Chief Operations Officer, advised on 8 May 2019, that Planet Ice would be reviewing its future relationship with all EIHL teams operating from its buildings because the Milton Keynes consortium licence was rejected for the 2019–20 EIHL season.[2]
