We deliver turnkey ice rinks
– with a guarantee for safe ice, completely hassle-free!
Icebreaker is a concept by Energy Rent AS – one of Norway's leading companies in temporary heating and cooling.
It should be easy to create a good atmosphere and camaraderie. Therefore, we have set up two different basic packages that include everything needed.
The ice rink can be built exactly where you want, making it the natural meeting place. A mobile ice rink creates an attractive city center that includes physical activity and camaraderie, perfect for school classes, kindergartens, and other social gatherings for groups.
"– We try to create life and activity in Bryne city center. Being part of this ice rink is right in our core area, so we didn’t take long to decide to join when Christian came to us with the idea," says Olav Hetland, leader at Brynes Vel.
Create magical moments anywhere!
This season has been a great success with built-in ice rinks. A built-in ice rink guarantees usage, regardless of weather conditions!

Additional options can also be added to the basic package as desired. We have the following additional options: Tents, Skates. Packages from 50 pairs, Skating aids. Penguins/seals, Activities.

Advertising opportunities on the ice rink
The opportunities to acquire relevant sponsors are numerous.
The Bankisen in Sandnes was built in collaboration with Sandnes municipality. The main sponsor of the project was Sandnes Sparebank, and they therefore had the honor to name the ice rink "Bankisen." Collaboration partner Domino’s was responsible for renting out skates. Both the bank and Domino's experienced a lot of publicity and discussions around the event and received advertising worth gold!
Illustration above is an example of advertising opportunities for an ice rink of 150m2.
A mobile ice rink is the perfect marketing tool to create buzz around your event
Several of the Icebreaker ice rinks we have delivered previously have been used in sports-active events. For instance, an ice hockey tournament was held on the ice in downtown Stavanger, and a figure skating performance on the Bankisen at Ruten in Sandnes.
Potential sponsors for the ice rink could be:
- Banks
- Insurance companies
- Property developers
- Food, hotel, or building material chains
- Power/energy companies
- Event services
- Staffing companies
- Local business chains
We are happy to provide marketing tips.
Volunteer work with a sales cart
A sales cart as an option can provide volunteer work for local sports arenas. This is a great opportunity for sports clubs to raise some extra funds, as well as create a cozy community and environment, especially for parents and grandparents, who can then enjoy a nice cup of hot coffee or cocoa. This also provides good opportunities for renting out skates.
The ice rink is a big hit among users
On weekends, the offer is very popular with several hundred on the ice rink daily, says skate renter Tindra Arndottir at the ice rink in downtown Stavanger. Also on weekdays, there are several children and adults frolicking on the ice.
The ice rinks are used for various purposes and are attractive both during the day and in the evening.
The ice rink that was set up in Randaberg this year was fully booked for all possible reservations barely a week after the rink was fully assembled.
"It has exceeded all expectations. It is a true joy to see how the children enjoy themselves on the ice," says Svein Sørnes, general manager at the Village Association.
The ice rink gives schools and other groups a great opportunity to vary activities. Several schools and kindergartens have used the mobile Icebreaker ice rinks for gym classes, but also just to do something social a little out of the ordinary.
