Atlanta Centennial Olympic Park (downtown Atlanta) also sets up a temporary ice skating venue during the winter.
.
There are nearby full time professional rinks in Marietta (‘Ice Forum II’), Alpharetta (‘The Cooler’), Cumming (‘The Ice’), Sandy Springs (‘Center Ice’) and Duluth (Ice Forum I’). It is correct that these are all in the suburbs outside of Atlanta, however they are open nights and weekends. The rink in Duluth, for example, is not a terrible trip from Emory or Tech (outside of rush hour), it is a straight shot of 20-30 minutes or so up Interstate 85.

It may be surprising, but ice skating is a fairly popular activity around Atlanta (GA Tech has a hockey team, I believe they practice in Cumming).
