XtraCold Icebar Amsterdam: tickets, prices, opening hours and tips
The XtraCold Icebar, at Amstel 194, is a bar built entirely of ice, a short walk from Rembrandtplein. The temperature is kept at -10 °C and drinks are served in glasses made of ice. The ticket includes three drinks: a cocktail in the warm entrance bar, styled as a sailor's tavern, then two drinks in the ice bar. Under-18s are not allowed, and according to the official website the whole experience lasts about 45 minutes. Tickets are booked online for a time slot; the official site announces free rescheduling or cancellation up to 8 hours before.

The counter, the sculptures and the glasses are all carved from ice. The website recommends a warm coat and gloves; plan a short stay, as the cold bites after a few minutes.
Practical info
Tips
- The Icebar's official website does not list the ticket price on its information pages: resellers showed it at around €25 including the three drinks in October 2026, with a lower rate for slots before 8 pm. Check the price and the slot when you book. ID may be requested. Minors are not admitted, even with an adult: for a family outing, see our guide to Amsterdam with kids. Last admission is 40 minutes before closing. One offer combines entry with a canal cruise (partner link: if you book, we earn a commission at no extra cost to you); to compare cruises on their own, read our canal cruise comparison. To carry on the evening, see Amsterdam by night, nearby Rembrandtplein or the Heineken Experience, the city's other tour with drinks.
