Metro to Kettler Capitals Iceplex

Washington Capitals

The Kettler Capitals Iceplex is the home of the Washington Capitals, the official ice hockey team of Washington DC.

Although the Kettler Capitals Iceplex is the home of the Washington Capitals, only practices are held here; the actual NHL games are played at the Verizon Center. Practice sessions are open to the public and free of charge, except those held at the Verizon Center, which are closed to the public.

The Iceplex has two indoor NHL-sized ice rinks for year-round ice skating, a full-service ProShop, a snack bar, and space for special events. The rink is located on the 8th level of the Ballston Mall parking garage. The arena was built atop an existing seven-story public parking garage at the corner of North Glebe Road and North Randolph Street.
