Ice Cream Museum’s Vegas Flagship Spans 30,000 Feet

Museum of Ice Cream’s largest global location opened at AREA15 July 3 with 14 installations

Published August 4, 2026

Museum of Ice Cream opened its largest location yet at AREA15’s Zone 2 on July 3, and Clark County made it official on July 9 by lighting the “Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas” sign pink for the grand opening. The 30,000-square-foot flagship packs in 14 immersive installations, from a sprinkle-filled banana boat canal to a full ice cream wedding chapel. Museum of Ice Cream tickets start at $50 through Spotlight.

AREA15’s Sweetest New Flagship

The Las Vegas location marks Museum of Ice Cream’s largest build to date, and it shows. Guests move through 14 themed installations across the 30,000-square-foot space, anchored by the Sprinkle Pool, now the brand’s biggest anywhere, complete with a pair of two-story slides that drop riders straight into the sprinkles. Vegas-specific touches include the Cone-sino, where you wager edible ice cream chips on casino-style games, and five slides total, including what the brand calls the longest double helix slide in the city. The space also houses the world’s largest all-you-can-eat ice cream buffet and a vintage-style dining club built around classic Vegas glamour. It’s located inside AREA15’s Zone 2, in The Terminals building at 3072 Rigel Avenue. Hours run 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, and 11 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Friday through Sunday; the museum is closed Tuesdays.

A Wedding Chapel, a Casino and a Buffet

Museum of Ice Cream Las Vegas leans into its location. Beyond the sprinkle pool and wedding chapel, the flagship adds a speakeasy hosting what the brand calls the world’s first ice cream-tasting magic show, a costume rental shop called Ribbon’s, and a temporary tattoo parlor themed like an old-school ink shop. It’s designed for guests of all ages, whether that’s a family afternoon, a bachelorette stop, or a detour between rides at AREA15 attractions in Las Vegas, the immersive entertainment district it calls home. The museum shares space with neighbors like Omega Mart and Wink World, and more openings, including a Boeing 747 experience, are still coming to the same Terminals building.

What this means for your Vegas trip

If you’re building an AREA15 day, plan around the museum’s hours since it’s closed Tuesdays and shuts earlier midweek. Tickets run from $50 through Spotlight, and booking ahead beats walking up, especially on weekends when the sprinkle pool draws a line. Give yourself at least 90 minutes inside, and budget extra time for the short drive to AREA15, just off the Strip near the Rio. Pair it with another playful stop like Museum of Illusions tickets for a two-attraction day built around photo ops rather than a show or a table.

Book Your Sweetest Vegas Day

Museum of Ice Cream’s Las Vegas flagship is open now at AREA15, and tickets start at $50 through Spotlight. Lock in your date before weekend slots fill, and build the rest of your AREA15 day around it while the sprinkle pool crowds are still fresh news.
