About MUSEUM OF ICE CREAM

Museum of Ice Cream is a self-guided interactive museum located inside Paramount Miami Worldcenter in Downtown Miami, where guests wander through 14+ playful, immersive rooms built around ice cream and Miami culture. Highlights include the iconic Sprinkle Pool, a Rainbow Tunnel, a Carnival room, a Sensory Lab, and a Hall of Freezers, plus unlimited ice cream tastings and exclusive treats found only at this location.

The experience typically takes about 90 minutes and is designed for families, couples, and friends looking for a playful, Instagram-friendly outing. General admission starts around $24, with Flex and VIP ticket tiers offering added perks like retail discounts, a complimentary cocktail, and a keepsake gift.

A cafe and gift shop round out the visit, and the museum is wheelchair accessible with accessible restrooms and parking. Advance ticket booking is recommended since entry times sell out, especially on weekends.
