The venue features a 'sprinkle pool' containing over 100 million custom-designed, antimicrobial plastic sprinkles.
The concept originated as a pop-up project in New York City before expanding into a permanent-style installation model.
The interior design employs a specific color palette intended to evoke nostalgia and sensory stimulation.
The facility is designed as an interactive art installation rather than a traditional museum housing historical artifacts or archival collections.
The Museum of Ice Cream in Miami is an interactive, multi-sensory art installation space focused on ice cream as a cultural theme. It features highly stylized, monochromatic, and oversized rooms designed for immersive social media photography. The facility includes a signature sprinkle pool, which is a shallow basin filled with millions of antimicrobial plastic sprinkles. Visitors traverse a sequence of curated exhibits that incorporate edible treats throughout the experience. It is located within the Met Square development in Downtown Miami. The experience is self-guided and non-linear, allowing visitors to engage with various tactile art installations. Staff members provide historical trivia and themed storytelling during the tour. The exhibits are physically dynamic, requiring guests to climb, slide, and walk through various themed corridors.
The large-scale sprinkle pool basin provides the most iconic visual for the museum.
Charge your smartphone or camera fully, as the environment is designed exclusively for photography.
Wear comfortable footwear, as the experience involves walking, climbing, and sliding through various installations.
Arrive promptly for your designated entry window to ensure you have enough time to visit every room before the tour progression.
Do not attempt to consume the plastic sprinkles or other installation materials; only provided edible treats are safe for consumption.
Closed on Tuesdays.
Socks are required for the sprinkle pool; avoid wearing loose jewelry that could get snagged on installations.
