A visit to the Amsterdam Xtracold Icebar includes three free drinks. Upon arrival, you will enter the heated bar. Here, you can enjoy your first free drink.

Before stepping into the Xtracold Icebar, warm clothing will be offered to survive the -10 degrees Celsius. The bar is surrounded by ice, from the walls to the ice sculptures to your very own glass, where you can enjoy two ice-cold free drinks.
