KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Market Square's Holidays on Ice will close for the season after its regularly scheduled hours on Sunday.
The rink will be open from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m .

"Bring socks and bring gloves, be prepared to possibly hold on... it's always 20 to 30 degrees colder here than it is anywhere else in Knoxville, so be prepared for weather," she said.
