Ice*Amsterdam

For more than 15 years, Swedice proudly contributed to the success of Ice*Amsterdam. We managed the entire skating operation and provided visitors with an unforgettable ice experience. Although we are no longer involved, we look back with pleasure on these beautiful winters at the Museumplein.

Technology
The ice rink is made using the modern and state-of-the-art ICEFLOO system. This system is custom-made for the location, transforming the entire pond at the Museumplein in Amsterdam into an ice rink. It’s as if the water has simply frozen over!

The boarding around the ice rink is precisely tailored and fits exactly against the concrete edge of the pond. The ice rink is cooled by refrigeration technology, which is permanently installed in the basement under the pond.

ICE*Amsterdam uses the latest ICEFLOO system.

Turnkey
We install the cooling panels and ensure that the panels are connected to the cooler. Additionally, we fully stock our custom-made skate racks with 1,000 pairs of skates and operate the ice rink throughout the entire season! Our Zamboni (ice resurfacer) gets to shine every day, making its rounds to restore the ice to optimal condition.

Concept & decoration
The concept for this ice rink was developed in collaboration with Kinetic Creative. A distinctive feature of Ice*Amsterdam is the Magere Brug (Skinny Bridge) over the rink. This is one of the elements from Kinetic Creative’s design. The bridge adds an extra dimension to the experience and provides the perfect spot for a photo opportunity. Visitors can also easily walk to the other side of the ice rink via this bridge, where the annual Christmas market takes place.
