Central Coast Sports Arena may close after October as its lease ends
The Santa Maria rink says its fairgrounds lease will not be renewed past October 31, 2026, and is looking for a new home or a lease extension.

Central Coast Sports Arena in Santa Maria, California, says its lease will not be renewed past October 31, 2026, and that without a new location its roller hockey, public skating, youth programs and tournaments may have no home in Santa Maria after that date.
The rink announced it on a "Save Our Rink" page on its own website. According to the rink, the staff spent months looking for a way to stay at the current location, which it describes as the fairgrounds, before deciding they could no longer wait. It is asking for two things: a new place to relocate, or a way to extend the lease with the fairgrounds. It also asks for help spreading the word, identifying a facility, making connections and showing support, and the site links to a GoFundMe.
Until the lease ends, the rink is still running. Public skate sessions are listed Friday from 7:30 to 10 PM, Saturday from 4 to 6 PM and 7:30 to 10 PM, and Sunday from 5:30 to 8 PM. Confirm the current schedule on the rink's site before you go.
If you know of a building, can help with the lease, or want to offer a resource, the rink asks you to contact Tobin at 805-868-3035 by text, or email ccsahockey@gmail.com. This is the rink's own account; Rink Report has not heard from the fairgrounds, and the listing stays open until the rink actually closes.
