Delburne Skating Club Carnival

A Celebration of Skating, Confidence, and Fun

The Delburne Skating Club’s annual Kids’ Skating Carnival brings together our CanSkate, PreStarSkate, and StarSkate athletes for a fun, family-friendly showcase on the ice. This special event is designed to celebrate each skater’s progress in a positive, supportive environment—no competition, just creativity and joy.

CanSkate Performances

Our youngest skaters take the ice to demonstrate the fundamental skills they’ve been working hard to master. The carnival gives CanSkaters the chance to:

Show off their balance, control, and basic skating skills
Experience performing in front of an audience
Build confidence in a fun and encouraging atmosphere
Enjoy themed routines, music, and teamwork

The focus is on participation, growth, and having fun.

PreStarSkate Performances

PreStarSkate is the bridge between CanSkate and StarSkate, and the carnival is a perfect opportunity for these developing skaters to shine. PreStarSkaters showcase:

Early figure skating elements and improved edge control
Introductory spins, turns, and choreography
Growing confidence transitioning from group skills to performance routines
Creativity and expression through themed music and costumes

This level highlights the exciting progress skaters make as they take their first steps into more advanced figure skating.

StarSkate Showcases

Our StarSkate athletes bring added artistry and skill to the carnival with:

Choreographed solo or group routines
Musical interpretation and performance quality
Advanced edges, turns, spins, and footwork
Inspiring younger skaters through leadership and enthusiasm

It’s a great opportunity for StarSkaters to shine while celebrating their growth throughout the season.
