SF’s First “Saturday Night Skate” Pop-up Roller Disco at Ferry Building

“Saturday Night Skate” Pop-up Roller Rink

The team behind San Francisco’s “Church of 8 Wheels” have a habit of putting roller rinks in unusual places. First they took over Sixth Ave. in Golden Gate Park, turning a 30-day trial into almost 40 years. Then in 2013 they converted an abandoned church on Fillmore St. into a roller disco. And now they are at it again, but this time for two days only. Hidden behind the Ferry Building you’ll find an LED-lit arch inviting you into a 2,400 square foot roller rink with speakers at every corner for that deep rich bass sound to help you get funky while rolling with your homies. 

Saturdays, August 13 and September 17, 7-10 p.m., Ferry Building back plaza, S.F., Free admission, free skate rentals (limited supply), but RSVP is required. ferrybuildingmarketplace.com
