Tivoli Gardens

Tivoli is more than just a fairground. It’s a cultural wonderland and historical gem right at the heart of Copenhagen.

The world’s most-visited seasonal theme park

Tivoli has been entertaining people since it opened its gates in 1843. It is the second-oldest theme park in the world and the world’s most-visited seasonal theme park. Its delightful mix of rides, attractions, performances and culture make it a treat for adults and children alike.

Your very own fairytale

Stepping through its arch, you step into a world of fairytales, exotic lands and thrilling rides. You can sense that generations have walked its maze of things to see and do, including Hans Christian Andersen. For the brave, the park contains one of the world’s highest chain carousels and a number of exhilarating rollercoasters.

Romance in Tivoli

At night, Tivoli takes on a whole different aura. With its lights and lamps dotted in trees and on pavements and its cafés, restaurants and fairground attractions open for those taking a stroll after dark, Tivoli is a really romantic setting. Tivoli even offers occasional days where you can get married in one of the world’s most unusual settings

Children’s Tivoli
