Indoor Roller Disco

Indoor Roller Disco is back at Pitt St. Skatepark this Friday 7 August, part of the regular night that runs every Friday evening in Portsmouth. It's a straightforward setup: the skatepark is cleared for roller skating, the music goes on, and you spend the night on wheels. If you've never been, it's exactly what it sounds like — a disco on skates, indoors and under cover, so you don't have to worry about the weather.

It's a weekly thing, not a one-off, which is the best part. If you're just getting back into skating or you're a complete beginner, you can turn up one week, find your feet, and then come back the next without having to rush it. The session runs from 7pm to 10pm, so there's a full three hours to skate, which is plenty of time to warm up and still get a proper session in. It's a lively atmosphere, and because it's a regular, you'll start to see the same faces around the rink.

Being indoors at Pitt St. Skatepark means it's a controlled environment, so you're not dealing with uneven pavement or rain. It's a dedicated space for skating, which makes it a lot easier to just focus on the music and the movement rather than watching where you're going. Whether you're there to polish your skating or just to have a laugh with friends, it's a good way to spend a Friday night in the city.

It runs every Friday from 7pm to 10pm at Pitt St. Skatepark in Portsmouth, so if you're around this Friday 7 August, you know where to find it.
