Art Below Zero

To celebrate the 750^th anniversary of the city, the Centrale Markthal in Amsterdam is turning into a frozen museum. It will be filled with ice sculptures that portray the history of the city, from iconic buildings to historical figures. It will be Europe’s biggest ice exhibition, something no one wants to miss out on!

Amsterdam has a rich history, from the founding of the city in 1275 to today, countless people, sights and events have shaped it. A team of sculptors and artists will transform 500 tonnes of ice and snow into more than 135 ice sculptures. See the Rijksmuseum and some world famous art works made from ice, as well as many other iconic sights in the city.

Art Below Zero is a temporary exhibition, from 21 December 2024 till 2 March 2025. Book your tickets now for this art and ice experience in Amsterdam. But make sure to dress warmly as the entire space will be kept at a chilly -10° Celsius!

Along with the art exhibition, the Markthal will also feature an ice bar and a food court. And for kids there is a fun and educational scavenger hunt, which can be picked up for free at the ticket desk. There is nothing quite like a visit to Art Below Zero for the whole family.
