All aboard! Join Seashore Trolley Museum in Kennebunkport for a fan favorite — Ice Cream Night! This summer tradition is held every Wednesday in July and August from 5:30PM-7:30PM. Guests are treated to an evening trolley ride on the museum’s heritage railway through their 350-acre campus AND an ice cream sundae with all the fixin’s!
Tickets are $12/each (children ages two and under are free). Admission includes the trolley ride and ice cream sundae. Trolleys depart at 5:30PM, 6PM, and 6:30PM. It is recommended for guests to purchase tickets in advance at https://icecreamnight.eventbrite.com.
This event is even more special because Seashore Trolley Museum gives back to the community. The museum has selected nine nonprofits from the local community, one for each of the nine Ice Cream Night events. These partner nonprofits receive 50% of all ticket sales during their event; this means they receive $6 for every ticket sold to support their mission.
2023 Benefiting Ice Cream Night Nonprofits:
- August 9: Kennebunk Free Library
- August 16: Brick Store Museum
- August 23: Kennebunk Portside Rotary Club
- August 30: Friends of Wood Island Light
This event is sponsored by Saco & Biddeford Savings. If you have any questions or would like additional information, please reach out to events@trolleymuseum.org or (207) 967-2800 x110.
This event offers guests to experience history in motion on the interactive trolley rides on the museum’s heritage electric railway, which once served as a portion of Maine’s Atlantic Shore Line Railway (1904-1927). Subway cars, locomotives, buses, a switching tower and other interesting artifacts are also on display around the museum’s grounds. The Museum Store offers several locally-made gifts to choose from. The campus and trolley rides are dog-friendly.
