Icebarcelona Tours and Activities

Experience winter on the beach and cool off at Icebarcelona, the world’s first beachfront ice bar. Located in the Port Olímpic neighborhood on the Barcelona waterfront, visitors can enjoy cocktails and dancing in this unique bar where everything is made of ice—including the walls, bar, seats, and decor, and the temperature is kept at a chilly -20ºF (-5ºC).
 
The Basics
Inside the ice bar enjoy your choice of a specially made cocktail, chilled in its own ice glass, while soaking up the cool atmosphere; local artists have carved the ice sculptures inside. The entrance fee for Icebarcelona includes the drink and the use of a jacket and gloves. Afterward, step outside to warm up and take in stunning views of the Mediterranean on the alfresco terrace, which offers a broader range of drink options.
 
Save money on tickets by booking online before your visit. Special packages for groups, parties, or romantic events are available. A visit to Icebarcelona can easily be combined with a city sightseeing tour. Opt for a hop-on hop-off bus tour to explore Barcelona at your leisure, or a guided tour for a curated experience.

Experiencing “Chiringuitos”
Open-air beach bars, known as chiringuitos, are an essential part of the Spanish beach experience. Whether they are simple shacks or kiosks to something more sophisticated, they all serve food and drinks. Some chiringuitos around Barceloneta and Port Olímpic will have resident or visiting DJs spinning late into the night.
