ICEBAR Orlando is gearing up for a chilly start to 2026 with the return of its annual New Year’s Eve bash, “The Ice Masquerade,” set for Wednesday, Dec. 31. The spot on I-Drive plans to transform its Fire Lounge, patios, and signature frozen bar into a festive winter celebration beginning at 7 p.m.
This year’s event pairs classic NYE energy with ICEBAR’s signature arctic aesthetic. Guests can expect live DJ entertainment, dancing, themed entertainment across multiple spaces, ice sculptures, and specialty cocktails served in both the Fire Lounge and the 18-degree ICEBAR. Attendees will also receive a complimentary digital souvenir photo and access to raffle giveaways throughout the night.
