Starting Saturday, November 15, 2025, the ice rink at Museumplein will reopen for a season of winter fun. For nearly three months, Amsterdammers and visitors can enjoy a charming winter outing in the cultural heart of Amsterdam.
The ice rink is a long-standing winter tradition, popular with young and old alike. With a rich history dating back to 1864, when the Amsterdam Ice Club brought skating fun to the neighborhood, the return of the ice rink is more than just a seasonal activity: it's a cultural heritage and a piece of the city's identity. Whether you're learning to skate, want to improve your technique, or just want to skate around, it's the perfect place for winter fun for all ages.
Your daily dose of happiness
After skating, enjoy delicious classic dishes and hot drinks in the atmospheric restaurant by the ice rink. Or choose festive cocktails and winter drinks at the outdoor bar, the perfect place to relax after your skating session. For groups, the restaurant can accommodate up to 150 guests per shift, and the outdoor terrace is perfect for larger events for up to 1,000 people.
