Luna Park

Luna Park is a heritage listed amusement park. Opening on the 4th October, 1935, the park is a rare surviving amusement park featuring fantasy architecture in the Art Deco style of the 1930s. The concept is based on the success of the first Luna Park which opened on Coney Island, New York in 1903.

Luna Park was closed in 1979 following a fatal fire in the Ghost Train ride where six children and one adult died.

The park has had a chequered career having closed and re-opened several times due to such things as the Ghost Train fire, a lack of maintenance, Big Dipper noise concerns from local residents and re-development of the site.

Today, Luna Park continues to operate at a wonderful location beside our iconic Sydney Harbour and is popular with locals and visitors alike.
