One of Citrus Heights’ longest running hangouts looks like it is finally changing hands. Sunrise Rollerland, the retro roller rink tucked behind Sunrise Mall, is expected to be sold in the coming weeks, and regulars say they are now spotting farewell messages and clearance signs as longtime owners prepare to step back. For the moment, the rink is still open for public sessions, lessons and private parties while agents work to close a deal.
As reported by the Sacramento Business Journal, Sunrise Rollerland and photos posted online indicate the owners expect the property to change hands and for operations to transfer “within the next few weeks.” According to the Business Journal, the rink plans to keep hosting roller skating while the sale process moves forward.
Listing and property details
Commercial listing materials show the site as a 26,376 square foot clear span building on about 2.82 acres, with roughly 150 on site parking spaces, according to LoopNet. The LoopNet posting lists Tony Wood of eXp Commercial as the listing agent and shows that active marketing dates back to spring 2025. Brokers say the combination of building size and plentiful parking is part of what has drawn interest from national level buyers.
Owners want the rink to stay
The Neutz family, which opened Sunrise Rollerland in the 1970s and has operated it for decades, has publicly signaled that it wants to see skating continue at the site. The Citrus Heights Sentinel reported that owner manager Ken Neutz and the listing broker have stressed a preference for an operator buyer who would preserve the rink as a recreational facility rather than flip it to a different use. The rink recently marked its 50th anniversary and still hosts classes and competitions alongside public sessions.
Rink still operating, ‘farewell’ messaging up
Despite the sale talk, Sunrise Rollerland’s homepage continues to advertise session schedules, birthday party bookings and lessons. The site also features imagery labeled “Farewell Rollerland” along with a “25% off Sale 2026” banner, suggesting staff are clearing out inventory while the property is marketed, according to Sunrise Rollerland. The website lists the rink’s address and contact information as usual, underscoring that the business is still operating while the sale is handled in the background.
