The Atlanta Figure Skating Club’s exhibition is the opening-night performance for the 2026–27 Skate City Springs season. The listing describes it as a display of athletic skating, but does not name individual skaters or give a detailed running order.
The rink season is listed as running Nov. 13 through Jan. 18. Fright Night is its first themed skate, rather than a multi-day Halloween event.

For Fright Night, the organizer invites skaters to wear Halloween costumes and says the music will be selected for the theme, with a DJ continuing it during the session. Costumes are encouraged, not stated as a requirement. Hot cocoa is mentioned. The season listing says costumed guests at themed nights receive free cocoa, but the event listing does not confirm whether that offer applies to this particular session.
There is an important timing distinction when booking: the event is listed from 8 to 10 p.m., while the ticket instructions say a timed session gives skaters one hour on the ice. The listing does not identify which one-hour reservation corresponds to Fright Night, so check the slot details when tickets go on sale.

Skate City Springs’ season page describes themed nights as part of a broader program that also includes Friday Disco Slide Nights, beginning at 6 p.m., and themed Saturday skating. Fright Night is a special opening-night Friday event; the season page lists it among the themed nights but does not provide a detailed schedule for every later date.
The season listing also advertises free Skate Helpers to assist with balance. It does not explain how to request a helper or confirm arrangements for Fright Night, so visitors who would rely on that support should check with the rink.

The evening pairs the Atlanta Figure Skating Club’s season-opening exhibition with the first themed skate of the rink season. The advertised skating window and the one-hour timed booking are not the same duration.
The exhibition is scheduled for 7 p.m.; Fright Night is listed for 8–10 p.m. Arrive 10–15 minutes before the timed skating session to pick up skates. The listed event window is two hours, but each timed skate is one hour; the event page does not specify which booking slot applies.
Tickets are not yet on sale, and no sale date or Fright Night price is given. Admission includes skate rental. The season page lists standard Friday–Sunday skating rates of $18 for adults and $15 for children ages 2–9; those are season rates, not a confirmed Fright Night price.
Online reservations are recommended because capacity is limited. Walk-ups are welcome if space allows; City Springs advises calling (404) 890-6690 to check availability before setting out. The event listing gives no age rule.
