A bar made in ICE

The idea came up in September 2002, and after more than a year of studies, projects and works, ARTICO ICE BAR opened its doors on June 7th 2004.

The result is so shocking that you might not imagine how we did it. If you know about the process, you will admire ARTICO ICE BAR even more when you visit it.

We will advance you some curious numbers:

- 14 Norwegian enterprises and 68 people have been working directly with us to make ARTICO come true.
- 123 ice blocs, with a total weight of 123 metric tons, were needed to build the bar.
- The ice blocks were taken from a lake 240 km away from Honningsvag, and they were moved in two days. Special trucks were used to do that.
