The Amsterdam Icebar is one of the coolest places in town (literally) and definitely in the top 10 of things to do in Amsterdam. And Our House is most certainly one of the hottest attractions in the city. Get a combination ticket for both attractions to explore Dutch polar expeditions and discover the roots of Electronic Music.

The Icebar has two bars, the ‘regular’ bar and the ice bar. As you enter, you step into the regular bar, where you can enjoy your first free drink of the night, in exchange for a golden token which you get when you enter the bar. When you’ve enjoyed your drink, you’ll be introduced to Willem Barentz, captain of the Mercury and arctic explorer. Join him on board to make your way into the ice bar, where the ship has gotten stranded in the ice.

Before you step inside the ice bar, you’ll be handed warm clothing such as a coat and gloves to survive the -10°C interior. In the ice bar, you are surrounded by ice, from the walls to the ice sculptures and the glasses served at the bar. In this frozen world you can exchange your two silver tokens for two more drinks.

Our House is the first electronic dance music museum where you can come and explore the evolution of electronic music. Once inside, you can start your 75-minute long journey with a free drink before exploring the story of how EDM evolved from a rebellious underground community into a global cultural phenomenon. The journey consists of shows, which will take you right back to very first warehouse nights and bring salutes to the most fundamental clubs and festivals, as well as displays and interactive exhibits.

The Netherlands is not the birthplace of House music or EDM but when the Netherlands caught on, it never let go and quickly developed its own style of electronic music called gabber, which is now often referred to as early hardcore. For years now, Dutch DJs have had a lock on the top spots in the Top 100 DJ list from DJ Mag and EDM has become one of the biggest cultural exports of the country.

The museum covers 40 years of House music and contains contributions by many legendary DJs and event organisers, including Armin van Buuren, Carl Cox, Charlotte de Witte, Diplo, Kevin Saunderson, Tomorrowland, Ultra Music Festival, ID&T and The Frankie Knuckles Foundation.
