Museum of Ice Cream is set to opens its doors to the West Coast this April claiming Los Angeles as its highly anticipated second location in DTLA’s burgeoning art district on April 22. Come hungry as the Museum’s new signature ice cream creation is sure to surprise and delight! Throughout its residency, the Museum will showcase on rotation one “scoop of the week” from coveted creameries in California including McConnell’s, Salt & Straw, Coolhaus x Cuisinart and CREAM. Additionally, there will be a special mochi ice cream tasting from My/Mo.
To heighten the olfactory and taste experience, the Museum worked with the scientists at International Flavors & Fragrances to develop ice cream inspired scents and flavors. All of these experiences lead to the unveiling of over 30 new shoppable ice cream products including custom sprinkles, scoopers, kadima, ping-pong table and more! Interactive highlights include a “banana split” comprised of ten thousand “bananas”, a mint “grow house”, a room dedicated to California, a melted popsicle jungle and more. The Museum will also feature an iconic swimmable sprinkle pool filled with one hundred million sprinkles that were custom designed and produced by Museum of Ice Cream.
Museum of Ice Cream captivated a global audience with its unprecedented 2016 launch in New York City, selling out in five days and attracting a waitlist of over 200,000. The Los Angeles location is four times larger than the New York City incarnation and showcases 10 completely reimagined installations. Museum of Ice Cream will be open from April 22 until May 29 from 11am-10pm, Wednesday–Monday. Tickets include two curated ice cream tastings and surprise edible treats! Ticket prices are $29 per person, $18 for children (3-12) and seniors (60+).
