Planet Ice (Birmingham)

Planet Ice was an ice rink situated in Billingham, England. It was originally opened in 1964 by Mecca Leisure but did not permit ice hockey for many years. The Birmingham Panthers were the first team to be formed at the rink. They practiced late at night and played all their fixtures away.

It closed in the summer of 1990 and operated as a roller rink until Planet Ice acquired the facility and re-opened as an ice rink in the mid-1990s.

A fire on February 9, 2003, severely damaged the rink, forcing its closure.
