For the first time ever, mega pop up The Winter Village is coming to Perth’s Ice Cream Factory in Northbridge.
The Winter Village is an alpine-inspired winter wonderland that debuted in Melbourne in 2019. It will transform Ice Cream Factory into a 3300m2 winter wonderland, complete with an ice skating rink, an igloo village, daily snow showers and food & drink pop ups serving the ultimate cosy comfort food.
Entry to The Winter Village is free, walk in customers can order food & beverage directly from the pop up bars, with casual outdoor seating available. For those looking for a new experience, here’s a taste of what you can expect:
The Brunch & Skate Package
The Brunch & Skate Package will let the weekend warriors work up an appetite with a 45-minute skate session, followed by a well-earned brunch in a private igloo. Brunch & Skate packages will be available every Saturday and Sunday at 10am ($35 for adults $22 for kids).
Ice Skating Passes
Ice skating passes can be booked online, with 45-minute sessions available during opening hours. Passes are $26 for adults, $18 for children aged 6-14 and $10 for children aged 3-5.
Private Igloo Packages
For the ultimate The Winter Village experience, guests can pre-book private igloos and cabins. The Winter Village will be home to 25 standard igloos, which can accommodate 2-5 people and include the choice of two food & beverage packages. The mega igloo is 11m wide and is perfect for larger groups of up to 14 guests.
The Standard Igloo Package is $49pp and includes a Grazing Plate of chips, dips, mini pretzels and cured meats, fried chicken bites, mac & cheese croquettes, dirty fries, herbed slaw, mash, gravy, a choice of wine or beer, and a chocolate ice cream sandwich for dessert.
The Premium Package is $69pp, and includes an additional espresso martini- flavoured chocolate fudge dipping sauce, berries, brownies, marshmallows & cookies and the choice of an Aperol Spritz, Espresso Martini, wine or beer.
Vegetarian options are available for both packages making it a great option for a group get together or work event (EOFY party anyone?).
Don’t miss out!
The Winter Village is brought to life by Australian Venue Co, who operate The Aviary, The Globe, Wolf Lane as well as The Guildford Hotel, Sweetwater and more – so you can be sure it’ll be a great event!
State Manager, Joe Baily, is excited to bring the Winter Village to Perth, in a year when many are looking for a new adventure without crossing state lines or going overseas.
“Most of us aren’t ready to make overseas travel plans, so we’re thrilled to be able to create an escape close to home for West Australian’s this winter. We aren’t holding back; we are going to bring the Winter Village with a bang!” he said.
“It’s perfect for a night out with friends, a fun day in the city with the family or for a unique corporate event with clients.”
The alpine-inspired winter wonderland will be open daily and will run for three months, from May 28 to September 5, 2021.
