Chillout Ice Lounge Dubai: An Ice Lounge at Minus 6 Degrees

Chillout is an ice lounge in Dubai where the temperature drops to minus 6 degrees Celsius. The interior, the seating and the sculptures are made of ice, and the place is built to look like a small winter inside the city. It is an experience unlike what people usually do in Dubai, and it suits anyone who wants to escape the desert heat for a moment and cool down.

Entering the cold: before you go in you receive cold-weather gear, including thermal coats, gloves and fur caps. The use of the thermal clothing is included in the ticket, so you can stay inside comfortably, and because the gear is provided on site you can arrive without winter clothing.

The flow of the visit: you arrive and are admitted to the lounge, put on the thermal clothing, step into the below-zero environment, and from there you walk around, take photos and enjoy the atmosphere.

What you see: inside you look at intricate ice sculptures, among them sculptures inspired by Dubai's landmarks and other wonders. You can walk between the sculptures, sit on seating made of ice and take photos. The visit takes place in an enclosed, indoor venue.

The contrast: the move from the heat outside to a temperature below zero is part of the experience. It is a place where you can take a break from the hot city and feel for a moment as if you had walked into winter.

Food and drink: hot drinks and light snacks are also served at the venue. They do not appear in the list of what is included in the ticket, which lists only entry and the use of thermal clothing.

Ages and rules: the ticket is for adults from age 13 and children aged 4 to 12. Children under 4 are considered infants. Children must be accompanied by an adult throughout the visit. These rules apply to the whole group, so it is worth checking the ages of all participants before you book.

Families with children: children aged 4 to 12 join on a child ticket. Children stay with an adult throughout the visit, so it is worth planning in advance which adult accompanies them.

What is and is not included: the ticket includes entry to the lounge and the use of the thermal clothing. Personal expenses, such as gratuities, are not included.

What to bring: a phone or camera to photograph the sculptures and the ice seating. The rest of the gear, thermal coats, gloves and fur caps, you receive on site. Anyone coming with children should make sure they are ready for the cold before going in.

Location: the lounge is in Dubai. The exact location and the meeting point are arranged with us.

Cancellation: this option is cancellable.

Who is it for? Families with children from age 4, couples, and anyone who wants to see something different in the city: a place that begins in heat and ends in cold. The venue is enclosed and cold, so anyone who is uncomfortable in low temperatures should consider that before booking.

In short: an ice lounge at minus 6 degrees, with seating and sculptures made of ice, thermal clothing included, from age 4, and the option is cancellable.
