"After several seasons as the reservation-only Curling Café, Bryant Park is rebooting the experience as a free, first-come, first-served activity focused purely on the game. There are now no bookings, no food-and-drink minimums and no pressure to linger longer than your competitive spirit allows. From February 6 through February 26, 2026, iceless curling lanes will pop up just east of the skating rink as part of Bank of America Winter Village."
"The lanes will be open daily from 11 am to 7 pm, welcoming anyone who wants to try their hand at sliding stones toward the bullseye, Olympic-level finesse not required. Curling has been a winter staple at Bryant Park since 2020, when the Curling Café debuted as a cozy, lounge-style setup. That format made for a great group hang, but its reservation-only status also meant planning ahead was mandatory."
"The timing isn't random, either. Curling's return coincides with Bryant Park's broader transformation into a Winter Games hangout throughout February. There will be live broadcasts inside The Lodge, themed programming and interactive experiences that lean into the Olympic energy without requiring a ticket to Milan. Of all the park's winter offerings, curling remains one of the most hands-on, as you get the chance to actively discover how deceptively hard this sport really is. (Spoiler: very.)"
Bryant Park will offer free, first-come iceless curling lanes from February 6 through February 26, 2026, located just east of the skating rink as part of Bank of America Winter Village. The lanes operate daily from 11 am to 7 pm with no bookings, fees, food-and-drink minimums, or reservations required. The experience focuses solely on the game and accommodates casual drop-ins, groups, midday breaks, and low-stakes dates. The return replaces the reservation-only Curling Café format that debuted in 2020. The program coincides with Winter Games–themed programming, live broadcasts inside The Lodge, and interactive Olympic-flavored experiences.
