The Ice Rink at the Museumplein

November 15, 2024 to February 02, 2025

Since 1864, Amsterdam has proudly maintained a rich tradition of ice skating at the Museumplein. A practice founded by the Amsterdam Ice Club, or ‘De Amsterdamsche IJsclub’ as named in Old Dutch.

In those early years, the rink served as a gathering place for both residents and skating enthusiasts from across the city, providing the joy of outdoor skating in the heart of Amsterdam’s cultural district. This year, the tradition is being revitalized with the launch of a brand-new rink in the Museum Quarter, where visitors of all ages can enjoy daily skating in a lively, healthy atmosphere.
