Boston just got a whole lot sweeter. Museum Of Ice Cream (MOIC) has officially opened its doors at 121 Seaport Blvd, and it’s already scooping up excitement across the city. Opened in December 2024, this colorful wonderland marks the sixth location for the widely popular immersive experience – and the first in New England. 

Whether you’re looking to sweeten up a cold winter day or celebrate the start of spring with something cool and creamy, MOIC is your go-to destination. Designed for all ages, the space features nine different interactive scenes, each more vibrant and whimsical than the last. Picture yourself swimming in a pool of sprinkles, playing ice-cream themed games, or snapping the perfect Instagram moment in a cotton candy colored wonderland. From the moment you walk in, you’re surrounded by imaginative installations, playful design, and bursts of pastel colors that awaken your inner child. 

But this museum isn’t just about the photo ops – it’s a full-on sensory experience. Guests are treated to free ice cream samples throughout their visit, with unique flavors and treats served at different stops along the way. From classic vanilla lovers to those craving something with a twist, there’s a sweet surprise waiting around every corner. 

MOIC Boston is the perfect place for any occasion. Planning a fun date night? Looking for an excuse to dress up with friends? Want to treat the whole family? This one-of-a-kind attraction offers a playful escape from the everyday – and a delicious one at that. 

Tickets are priced at $25 on weekdays and $33 on weekends, with free admission for kids aged 2 and under. The museum’s flexible hours make it easy to drop in whenever fun calls, whether you’re up for an afternoon adventure or an evening escape. 

As winter starts to melt away and warmer spring days peak through, now is the perfect time to grab a cone and indulge in some seriously sweet fun. The Museum of Ice Cream brings a glimpse of sunshine to Boston’s Seaport District.

So, what are you waiting for? Make some memories, take selfies, and satisfy your sweet tooth – because at the Museum of Ice Cream, every day is a sprinkle-filled celebration.
