A total of 38 days has been activity, from December 3, 2011 to January 8, 2012, with more than 90,000 skaters and 400,000 visitors, both quantities over all initial forecasts, so it intends to seek the next year the authorization to install new track, despite the installation ends with a loss of around 5%, mainly due to the low participation of sponsors as indicated by the Fundació Barcelona Commerce.
