The Mall of America is opening a public skating rink this weekend, here is what you need to know if you want to get your skate on at the MOA.

"Skate the Star" gives the opportunity for the public to skate outdoors around the ice sculpture they have that is in the shape of the MOA star logo.

The rink is located at the north entrance to the mall, near Ikea, and it opens this Saturday, December 8th and continues through January, 27th.
