Tivoli Gardens amusement park in Copenhagen, Denmark, is a must for all visitors to the city, young and old. Tivoli is located just a few minutesˈ walk from City Hall, and with the Copenhagen Central Station as its nearest neighbor, it is very easy to get to.
Tivoli Gardens was founded in 1843 and has become a national treasure and an international attraction. Tivoli Gardensˈ secret is that there is something for everyone. The scenery is beautiful with unusual architecture, historic buildings and beautiful gardens. At night, thousands of colored lights create a fairy tale atmosphere that is completely unique.
⮚ Rides

Tivoliˈs oldest and most popular ride, the wooden Roller Coaster from 1914, is one of only seven roller coasters worldwide which have a brakeman on board every train.
In 2017, Tivoli got a new VR (virtual reality) experience in the Demon, where the rollercoaster passengers are brought on a journey through a Chinese universe with fire-spitting dragons and exploding fireworks.
