Minus 5 Ice Bar
Experience Vegas from a cooler perspective at Minus5 Ice Bar, where everything is crafted from ice. Step inside this unique Arctic adventure for a chilling good time you won’t forget.
Minus 5 Ice Bar is a Las Vegas ice attraction that creates immersive environments where much of the space is carved from ice. Each Minus 5 location builds rooms, sculptures, and drinkware from ice to deliver a distinctly frosty entertainment option in Las Vegas. Tickets are offered for specific venues, including Mandalay Bay, the LINQ Promenade, and the Venetian, and each offering highlights the ice-crafted setting as the core draw.
At Mandalay Bay and the LINQ Promenade locations, descriptions note no set time limit for visits, allowing guests to explore ice sculptures and socialize at their own pace. At the Venetian location, Minus 5 visit lengths are often scheduled for about 30–45 minutes, with some experiences indicating the option to stay longer. One Venetian listing references an experience at “1923,” a specific session detail noted in available trip summaries.
Minus 5 markets itself as a premier ice attraction in the U.S., combining themed ice art with bar service in a subzero environment. Venues provide cold-weather parkas for guest comfort while inside the chilled rooms. Because tickets are location-specific, visitors should select the venue that matches their preferred timing and proximity in Las Vegas.
Ideal for groups, couples, or visitors seeking unique photo opportunities, Minus 5 Ice Bar offers an alternative nightlife experience defined by ice sculptures, ice glasses, and a highly curated chilly atmosphere across multiple Las Vegas venues.
