From start to finish we had such a wonderful time! We loved having the photo for a keep sake at the front entrance. The staff explained everything clearly and kindly. My favourite part was the dress up room and closet. It felt like my childhood dream come true!!! 💞💘💖

AMAZE Amsterdam is an immersive experience that mixes digital art, electronic music and visual effects in an engaging way. The spaces are creative, interactive and surprising, ideal for those who enjoy sensory experiences and taking different photos. Although it's not very long, the route is well paced and leaves a strong impression, especially for fans of technology and urban culture. Amsterdam's Icebar offers a fun and unique experience: everything is made of ice, from the walls to the glasses. The extreme temperature contrasts with the lively atmosphere and the drinks included make the visit even more enjoyable. It's touristy, but worth it for its originality. It's ideal for groups of friends and for those looking for something different on a short but memorable and well-organized night out in Amsterdam.
