The Dreamland Roller Rink is opening March 22 at the historic Childs Building in Coney Island. The opening event is an invite-only party that sounds like it will be a blast. Here’s some info from Dianna Carlin (aka Lola Staar, in a picture from her website of her on skates in front of the Childs building) about this season’s brightest development in Coney Island:
Lola Staar’s owner, Dianna Carlin, has won an amazing contest sponsored by Glamour Magazine and Tommy Hilfiger!! In celebration of Tommy’s new fragrance, Dreaming, they hosted a contest to make someone’s “dream come true!!”
Dianna dreamt of transforming the enchanted, vacant, historical landmark building pictured above into a magical Roller Rink full of color, life, energy, art and fun. Along with Taconic Investment Partners, Glamour and Tommy Hilfiger are helping her to transform this dream into a reality and filming a fabulous documentary movie about her exciting journey. On March 22nd, the spectacular Childs Building will become Lola’s magical roller skating Dreamland!
The Childs Building is a wonderful space with a great view of the beach and the water on a beautiful evening. We can’t wait for it to be filled with lights, music and a fun vibe.

Will it just be open that one day as a roller rink, or all summer?
