Tivoli Gardens

Copenhagen
Tivoli pleasure gardens
Unlike most amusement parks, there is far more to Tivoli than the optional rides alone. The park is filled with different types of gardens to engage all your senses. You can enjoy some peace and quiet in the Hanging Gardens with its big trees and a large grassy area to relax on.
The Orangery is reminiscent of classic, easy, exotic and nostalgic botanical gardens. While the bubbles of the Nimb Water Fountains pull you in to enjoy beautiful flowers and scenery in the company of the occasional peacock. And over at the Pergola Gardens you can explore the world of edible plants by taking in both their fragrance and their flavours.
On the southern tip of the lake you can visit three Asian-inspired gardens. The Bamboo forest has lots of bamboo and rhododendron; the Orient brings you palms, desert-oasis and exotic plants; and the Vintage Cars garden shows you flowerbeds inspired by a Chinese mountain landscape.
Finally, there are the traditionally Danish parts of the park. The Parterre Gardens have long held a position of great importance in Danish garden culture with its 22 beds and 32 water basins. And to visit a fantasy based Danish market town, the Alley is the place to go.
Optional treats and rides
Throughout the green gardens of Tivoli, you’ll find plenty of opportunities to slacken your thirst or taste delicious food. You’ll find all sorts of international cuisines here, from English fish and chips to Italian pizza, and from traditional Danish smorgasbords to Japanese sushi. There is something to eat for everyone at Tivoli.
And then of course there are around 30 rides to enjoy as well. There are rides for all ages, such as the Classic Carousel and Ferris Wheel for the youngest visitors, and the Demon roller coaster and Golden Tower for thrill seekers. All in all a visit to Tivoli Gardens is an experience you don’t want to miss when visiting Copenhagen.

Magical Escape at Tivoli Gardens
Visiting Tivoli Gardens was one of my most memorable experiences in Denmark. I felt like I stepped into a fairy tale when I entered the park. I loved the blend of classic charm and modern excitement throughout the grounds. The rides were fun, and the atmosphere was both lively and welcoming. I enjoyed quiet moments by the lake and heart-pounding thrills on the roller coaster. I think the park has something special for every kind of traveler, whether you are with family, friends, or on your own. I spent hours wandering the beautifully decorated paths, enjoying festive music and enchanting lights. It truly felt like a magical escape from everyday life. I left Tivoli Gardens feeling inspired and completely joyful.

Fun like Heaven
It’s really fun in Tivoli, there’s lots of food, rides and such. You should really try it! Everyone is so nice and friendly, the food is great, the rides are greater, the history behind them are also good. Here are some recommendations, The Roller Coaster, The Flying Trampolines, The Demon, The Ferris Wheel (Vertigo), The Dragon Boat, The Golden Tower and The Tea Cups. I hope you enjoy it!! (Don’t eat food before going on a ride)

What a fun place to be!
I went to Tivoli during the Halloween week and it was such a fun place to be! There were a lot of Halloween decorations and the lights make the place just seem so magical. My friends and I enjoyed the park very much.

Enchanting evening
The twinkling lights, charming rides, and lush gardens felt like stepping into a storybook. The atmosphere was magical, and the live music added to the romance. It’s the perfect spot for a date night in Copenhagen. We left with smiles and unforgettable memories!

Felt We Got Ripped Off
After dragging our kids through a long day of sightseeing, we wanted to reward them with an evening at Tivoli. They were very excited to take on all of the rides and we planned to try them all. Unfortunately, the park shut down all of their rides an hour before closing because they were putting on some sort of show. We had no idea, nor had we been informed by staff. Luckily the kids got to do most of the rides, but for the price you pay, we felt like we got ripped off. I contacted Tivoli customer service and they told me that because the kids had gone on a certain number of rides, they were not willing to offer any compensation. How the number of rides the kids went on factors into whether they believe you're owed compensation left me bewildered. We thought we were paying to be able to go on rides for a certain amount of time and they cut that short. It was a lot of fun. Just make sure you're aware of the hours before you go.

Fun
We spent a fun few hours here - the gardens are beautiful and the rides are great! Not too pricey although food and drinks are on the expensive side.

A must see
The thrilling rides got our hearts racing, while the romantic gardens offered perfect spots for quiet moments. We indulged in delicious treats from charming cafés, savoring every bite. Tivoli is a delightful blend of excitement and romance—a must for anyone exploring Copenhagen!

Worth visiting with children
A really good place to visit. However it really is for young people as it basically is fun fair. The gardens are beautiful and there are some great restaurants. The food hall is a great experience for choice of food.

Fabulous day in Tivoli Garden
Amazing trip with my grandkids. many exciting Christmas decorations and a lot of fun for the kids. Unfortunately no real snow. however it was not Tivoli's fault but the weather

A must visit in Copenhagen
Tivoli Gardens was fabulous. Staff were all very helpful and welcoming, the rides were varied and the choice of restaurants and drinks venues were dotted all over. The aquarium was a great benefit as the free pass ride allowed. Would thoroughly recommend this place!

Beautiful grounds and fun for all ages.
Tivoli Gardens is truly a 5* attraction in the centre of Copenhagen because of its amazing staff, beautiful grounds and the fact that it has something for all ages. We visited on a cold, dry day in January and appreciated the fact that there were opportunities to stop and have something to eat, have a break from the cold, and recharge to enjoy all it has to offer. We visited with a 3 year old and there were about 15 rides that she was able to go on. Many rides are listed with a solo rider in mind so worth checking the height requirements when accompanied by an adult as this opens up many more thrill rides. Our daughter’s favourites were The Galley Ships and The Roller Coaster, both had minimal queues and lasted for a good amount of time. Tip: Tivoli app allows you to scan your ride photo (via QR) to get a free download. Excellent feature.

Tivoli
Visited tivoli gardens the day before the park closes until the summer, the park is beautiful a The lights are so pretty and we loved the firefly garden, with teen boys who were looking forward to the rides, we were disappointed that two of the rollercoasters were closed and a couple of other rides, maybe they are winding down to closing but still paid the full amount x

Superb!
Well worth a visit, we went during the day on New Year’s Eve but it wasn’t too busy, the rides looked fabulous although we didn’t go on any. Lots of cabins for gifts & places to eat. Great atmosphere & we were able to return in the evening.

Amazing experience but very overcrowded place
Tivoli Gardens in Winter are beautifully decorated and illuminated at night, their Christmas Market is very rich, colourful and meets many tastes, experience is perfect. On the other hand, problems for visitors are: high entrance price without rides (200 DKK or 26 €), high prices in Christmas markets stands and restaurants (150% of regular prices in the city) and the place can be very overcrowded at night, with not much place even to walk, also with long waiting lines for the rides. Surely very worth to visit but maybe better not in some peak days with the most visitors.

Magical Land
Biggest park with more than 1000 trees decorated for Christmas. Must go and very enjoyable. Get carried away magically

Great amusement park with a really Christmas feel.
Tivoli felt magical over the Xmas period. The lights and atmosphere at night were great and we really enjoyed our time here. A good mix of modern and old fashioned rides alike.

Fabulous Christmas
We visited the park on Christmas Day and again on 27th Dec. We loved it! It was a perfect way to spend Christmas. The park was beautifully decorated. The rides were great. We had a fabulous time and would absolutely recommend.

It's nice, but expensive
We came to see the christmas market. We were not disappointed. Tivoli is a lovely space in the city centre. Lots of fun rides and games, many restaurants and bars plus good shops. The market was spectacular. It's just a shame about the high entry price.

Christmas wonderland
Visited with my elderly mother and my husband for the Christmas offering. We arrived around midday, took mum home about 6, then returned for the evening. We only bought entry tickets as not really in to the rides but I heard if you want to go on more than 4 rides the pass is more economical than paying individual rides. The Christmas market in the gardens is great, not cheap but acceptable prices for souvenirs. We bought beautiful decorations we have never found elsewhere so very happy. Obviously in December the gardens aren't at their best, but hyacinths were flowering and the use of evergreen cuttings to mulch borders looked great. The evening was brilliant, a 10+ minutes water, laser and light show to the Nutcracker was amazing and the lights basically felt like we had entered Christmas wonderland. I highly recommend for families and adults alike.

Garden and amusement park
Tivoli Gardens is a legendary amusement park for a reason. They know how to make the park magical in all seasons. For younger visitors, check out Veteran bilerne, HC Andersen’s Flyvende Kuffert, the boats, and the Rasmus Klump play area. Under the roller coaster mountain is an indoor parkour style play area. There are a variety of rides for all ages, but our favorites are the pirate ships and the roller coaster.

Magical
It doesn’t get much more Christmas-y than this place! A fantastic mix of stalls, shops, food, rides and games. All in a beautifully setting that looks great during the day, and absolutely amazing at night. The perfect place for getting into the Christmas spirit! A must do.

Absolutely fabulous at Christmas time
We loved our 3 day trip to Copenhagen to visit Tivoli Gardens in particular We were there from midday to 5pm and it was so nice to experience the park in the daylight when it was quieter so we could visit the little cabin shops etc and also see the beautiful lights everywhere once it had gone dark We ate in the Tivoli Foodhall in Zocalo and it was so nice The flowers everywhere were pretty and the gardens well kept also No litter !!! Highly recommend a trip here. Very expensive to eat and drink and also the shops here. Pre purchase your tickets so you don’t have to queue up to get in !

Christmassy vibes were strong!
Great time, very, very popular at Christmas time, so quite crowded. Beautiful lights! Would be a great tradition for those who live nearby-

Christmas wonderland
Beautiful spot. Went on Christmas Day amd we had an amazing time. It's a long day and we waited longer to see the illusion light show. Best part was lots of the stalls had 50% off Xmas decorations! Whole family had fun. We booked tickets ahead.

Christmas in the Danish capital
Good pricing and available to purchase tickets with the app. This feature allows for faster entry into the venue. Inside is packed with rides, shops, restaurants, and the ice rink. The ships sold great, hand crafted Danish ornaments, clothes, and decorations for Christmas. The food stalls were also serving up delicious treats Danish and foreign. The only downside was the ice rink! It was plastic, which they did warn us about, but we tried it anyway. It wasn't as fun or as real as ice, and I hope Tivoli would get actual ice in coming years, as this was the only negative of the experience.

Well worth a visit for all ages
We were told good things about this place before our trip to Copenhagen, but this place was even better than expected. We went when it was kitted out for Christmas and it was such a nice place to walk around in an evening and see the different sights. There are also multiple restaurants and bars to enjoy during your visit.

A perfect place for a family afternoon
Tivoli is such a fantastic place to go and enjoy a family afternoon with kids and in our case a family member in a wheelchair. It is beautiful, relaxing and good for the soul. Same that many of the restaurants are very poor quality (like the Italian place we went to. Doing the Garden a huge disservice.

Lovely to visit in December
Really lovely amusement park and beautiful garden, something to suit all the family. We started to queue before opening time and had pre-bought tickets which I recommend to do. Best to do your research to see which ticket option suits you, depends if you want to go on the rides as buying them included is a cheaper option if doing a few of those. Plenty of places to eat and drink. We went in December and it was beautifully decorated. We visited first thing in the morning and had a good wander around, stopping for refreshments and visiting all the festive stalls then we went back at night where it was beautifully lit up with a great atmosphere but extremely busy then especially in the eating areas which was to be expected. If leaving but going back later remember to get your hand stamped to get back in. Had a lovely day here and I would go back.

Family Fun
Visited Tivoli on a cold evening in December. Whilst the weather was cold, the multitude of light features, decorations and visual attractions easily distracted you and kept you 'warm'. Plenty of food stalls, cafes/restaurants, shops and theme park rides for all ages. A great place to spend 3 hours with the family exploring and soaking up all there is to offer. Although it was fairly busy, there was just enough space to get around without having to fight the crowds. Surprisingly the wait time to get on rides also wasn't that long.

Wonderful Christmas market!
Tivoli Gardens during Christmas is like stepping into a fairy tale! The market was filled with beautiful lights, decorations, and all kinds of food stalls. I tried some traditional Danish treats and mulled wine, which were delicious. There were also small rides and entertainment, which made it feel even more festive. It does get crowded in the evenings, so I’d recommend coming a bit earlier to enjoy the market without too many people.

Christmas at Tivoli, wonderful.
Absolutely wonderful at Christmas, it really was a wonderland of twinkling lights every-where. We basically went for the lights and Christmas atmosphere and were stunned that this covered the whole park area. And if you want theme park rides those looked excellent as well.

Better than expected
The pictures on the internet dont do justice with the place. Magnificent at night, and more than expected. Great atmosphere during Christmas, food and drinks everywhere. Brilliant place for kids

Xmas pill
The place to visit if you wanna get into xmas mood! Lovely old place that really attracts people year in and year out and it delivers as well. So much people visiting when we were there, its crowded!

It is the best Christmas theme Park, I've ever been
The 180 Dkk is worth it. In my opinion, it is the best Christmas theme Park. Situated just in the City Center of Copenhagen. Tivoli had romantic and bright Christmas lightnings with very nice Christmas decors everywhere. Inside Tivoli, you can feel the Christmas Season.

Christmas perfection
We visited Tivoli gardens at night and it was spectacular! Absolutely picture perfect Christmas scene. We didn’t go on any of the rides but they looked great fun. We were there to soak up the Christmas atmosphere and enjoy the Christmas market

Beautiful & Christmassy garden
Tivoli Gardens is probably the most well known tourist attraction in Copenhagen, but it was worth the visit! Especially at night it looked very festive with the Christmas decorations. Didn’t really went in for long since it was very busy, but it’s definitely a must see if you’re there!
Dec 9, 2024769JackB
Very Christmassy
Going here over the Christmas period definitely elevated our trip and we really enjoyed being able to go to a theme park in the middle of Copenhagen. All of the Christmas decorations made it feel very festive and enjoyable and there were plenty of rides, shops and decorations to keep us entertained for 4ish hours at least. We went on a Thursday afternoon and ended up spending most of the evening there. It was quite busy but not overly so. I can see how if you weren’t interested in the rides then it might not feel like particularly good value for money perhaps.

Christmas lights and market at Tivoli Gardens
The christmas market at Tivoli is mixed in with the shops that are there permanently and is mainly around the Namb hotel and peacock theatre area. The gardens sparkle with lights throughout the whole garden. There's some renovations happening and so an area or two have been boarded off. Sadly one of the permanent shops there is closed which is a shame because it was always busy and we were looking forward to visiting. Some of the areas affected are the dragon roller coaster which is still operating and the dodgem ride in the Arabia area making it a little more bare in areas and reducing the photo opportunities. Whilst it's necessary it was a bit disappointing as we were looking to take lots more pictures than we ended up taking and did put a dampener on the experience as the entrance had gone up 30 Kr. The christmas market was the same as previous years with one or two less food and drink stalls. The faux northern light show wasn't on this year but the projected light show was and different. Overall it's always worth going to see the christmas market, even if it isn't quite as magical as previous years.

Christmas Tivoli
I personally enjoyed Tivoli. For me it was the first ever attendance in a Christmas amusement park and it covered more than I expected. Tic Tac is my favourite attraction there and the food in some of the little houses was as Homer from the Simpsons says "Mmmaaaghhhhhh". I just diskiked that when I betted on the bikes with Santa, I won and the host didn't gave me the reward, otherwise 5 stars would be my final vote.
Dec 2, 2024804suew
Worth the hype!
This is a fabulous place. We visited just after it re-opened following its Christmas makeover. The rides are great, the decorations are beautiful and the food options are plentiful! If you come to Copenhagen, definitely put this place on your 'To-do' list!

What a magical place
We arrived at Tivoli on a Friday at 1400. Not too busy gave us the opportunity to really take in the atmosphere. Weekday visit we guessed would be less busy and think we were right. So many little stalls and the rides were cool decorations were amazing and definitely provided that Christmas feel. Sweets and cakes coffee and glogg everywhere so much to do for family and all. Stay until the evening to get the most of the lights.
Nov 24, 2024hsasmith
Worthwhile
I didn't go on any of the rides so can't comment on them but the shops and lights were amazing. Plenty of places to stop for food drinks or just to take in the christmas lights.
Nov 23, 2024dyhx
Christmas vibes this time of the year
The oldest amusement park in the world, with a world famous roller coaster where the seats are made of wood. It feels like Christmas already with the Christmas market open in here, the decor and Christmas trees in the attraction. The CPH Discover Card only provides free entry into the park, but the rides are not included. I found out only at the Musical Carousell but the staff was really kind and let me thru since I was in the queue for a while already. Most of the rides are catered for children though they do have a few thrilling ones for the grown ups.
Nov 23, 2024tab_wl
Nice
We aren't much for amusement parks, but we still enjoyed walking around Tivoli. There are some picturesque opportunities, and it was nice to take advantage of seeing a "free" ballet at the end of the night.
Nov 21, 2024luketpitchnoir
A great place to spend a few hours
A nice place to spend a few hours. Definitely go during Christmas for all the shops and food stalls amongst the rides and everything else. Shop around for tickets rather than buying on the gate.

Loved it - a must do!
A wonderful way to spend your evening in Copenhagen. We went on the opening night for Christmas, 15 November, 2024. Just booked entrance tickets as we are knocking on a bit for the rides, but if you are younger or got kids, it is a fun place with some great rides. There are plenty of shops to browse through and you can while away a couple of hours just wandering around the park. Food - so many places to eat in there to suit all budgets, my advice is to book before you go as we struggled to get a table in the restaurants - we did eventually, an Italian - great pizza. If you are in Copenhagen , this is a must do. Loved it.

Dont miss this one when in Copenhagen
The ambience is just so nostalgic. I felt like i was in a movie set. I went there when it just re-opened after halloween. You dont mind getting lost there, the lights were beautifully decorated, the food..well..a bit pricey, but i didnt mind sitting and eating there while watching the rides.
Nov 17, 2024piotruszka26
Simply Amazing!
We had amazing time in Tivoli Gardens. The gardens themselves, decor, especially with all the lights and halloween theme- amazing. Rides also very good. A bit pricy food, but it was definitely worth it!
