Burlington, Get Ready to Roll: SUSO Skate Co. is Coming to Mapleview Centre!

If you’ve been missing the massive retail space at Mapleview Centre since Decathlon moved out last year, we have some high-energy news for you. Instead of another clothing store or quiet showroom, the vacant space is being transformed into a vibrant, roller skating destination for the community.

Toronto’s own SUSO Skate Co. is officially bringing its famous pop-up roller rink to Burlington!

What is SUSO Skate Co.?

Founded in 2021 as a pandemic side-hustle at Toronto’s Bentway, SUSO (short for Summer Solstice) has grown into a GTA phenomenon. They specialize in "reimagining underutilized spaces"—taking empty big-box stores and parking garages and turning them into nostalgic, disco-inspired roller rinks.

What to Expect at Mapleview

The former Decathlon space is massive, which means plenty of room to catch some speed or practice your crossovers. Here’s the breakdown:

• Rental & Gear: Don’t own skates? No problem. SUSO offers quad skate rentals that include wrist guards. If you have your own pair, you can book a "Bring Your Own Skates" slot for a lower fee.

• The Vibe: Expect curated playlists, aesthetic lighting, and a total throwback atmosphere that feels like a scene straight out of the 80s or 90s.

Why Burlington?

After successful runs in Brampton, Oshawa, and North York, Burlington was a natural next step. By taking over the Decathlon unit, SUSO is giving locals a reason to head to the mall for more than just shopping—it’s about movement, music, and a bit of nostalgic fun.

Quick Details:

• Location: Mapleview Centre, Burlington (Lower Level, former Decathlon space).

• When: They aim to be open by February 12, 2026

Whether you’re a "pro" who never hung up their skates or a total newbie just looking for a fun way to stay active this season, the SUSO pop-up is the place to be.
