And remember, as an “all-ages attraction,” we welcome groups of all compositions, ensuring a fun experience for everyone in your party.

The Artistry of Ice: Meet the Master Carvers
The extraordinary environment at Minus5 Icebar is constantly being refreshed as part of our quarterly “Staying COOL” re-theming program. This means the sculptures, themes, and artistry change often to keep the experience new and exciting for repeat visitors.
- A World-Class Team: The large-scale construction and detailed displays are executed by a team of award-winning, master ice carvers from across the country, often featuring renowned names such as Dan “Hollywood” Rebholz and Austin Greenleaf.
- Competition-Proven Talent: Our lead artists are true professionals in their field. For example, Dan “Hollywood” Rebholz is celebrated for winning multiple international ice carving championship titles and was even part of the Olympic ice carving team in 2002 and 2006. These artists bring competition-level skill to every piece they create for Minus5.
- In-House Expertise: Austin Greenleaf serves as Minus5 Icebar’s in-house executive ice sculptor, helping to design and oversee the execution of the rotating displays at all three Las Vegas locations. The artists are hired for their specialized expertise, ensuring the highest quality of “ice artistry.” They are not part of an open application process for external competitions, but rather key members of our specialized construction team, dedicated to reinventing the space with new, astonishing themes every few months.
- The Building Blocks: The raw material itself is exceptional. Over 250-pound ice blocks are shipped from specialized producers who use a process that removes all air bubbles, resulting in the most transparent and beautiful ice possible for intricate carvings.
A Break From the Vegas Heat: Refreshing & Memorable
The oppressive heat is one of the most significant challenges associated with daytime or summer events in the desert. Minus5 Icebar is the perfect refreshing and entertaining break from the intense Las Vegas sun and typical, crowded attractions. We appeal to your aspiration to “experience something truly unique and share-worthy,” creating lasting memories. The stunning ice backdrop automatically elevates your event’s photo opportunities, providing your guests with fantastic, distinctive pictures they’ll be eager to share across social media. This experience is designed to be a centrepiece of your trip, not just a stop along the way. Searching for “Ice bar Las Vegas events” will consistently lead you to this immersive and unforgettable destination.
