The Chicago installment becomes the fourth city the popular tourist destination can call home, alongside New York City, Austin and Singapore. However, Chicago is the only location to house a “speakeasy” to enjoy cocktails, food and sweet treats.
“It’s a dream come true to be building Museum of Ice Cream in a place that birthed my love of ice cream, my passion for design and my obsession with urban exceptionalism,” Manish Vora, Co-Founder, said in a press release. “Museum of Ice Cream was created to inspire imagination and creativity for everyone, and it’s our intention to bring that spirit of joy to Chicago’s iconic Magnificent Mile.
The family-friendly speakeasy is exclusive to museum ticket holders, however, it is not a secret, so to say. It’s where the guided experience through the museum will end. The Chicago location will also feature fan favorites, like the famous Sprinkle Pool. In addition, new features and attractions have been designed specifically for Chicago, including the Sprink-L – a “Pink Line” inspired by the “L” —, a dessert themed putt-putt course and an interactive museum exhibit showcasing historical ice cream memorabilia.
“Museum of Ice Cream has been wildly popular and successful throughout so many cities and I am thrilled to see it coming to Chicago,” Mayor Lori Lightfoot said in a press release. “We’re constantly seeking ways to bring residents and visitors back to our Mag Mile, and this installation will certainly support that goal. I look forward to seeing how this museum will not only become an economic driver on Michigan Avenue but bring creativity and delight to residents and tourists alike.
