Luna Park
Luna Park has a great selection of rides from mild to wild
The present day Luna park on Coney Island is a brand new resurrection of the original Luna park that operated from 1903 through 1944 when it was destroyed by a pair of fires. Today Luna Park offers a selection of 29 different rides ranging from mild to wild including the famous and historic Cyclone rollercoaster and a new rollercoaster called the Thunderbolt with speeds up to 55 mph and so many twist, turns, and drops that one feels like they are being swung about like a rag doll. The wide assortment of rides categorized as Extreme Thrill, High Thrill, Moderate Thrill and Mild Thrill will provide excitement and adventure for your entire family.
The name of the park is Latin for moon and and is derived from the extremely popular ride called "A Trip to the Moon" that was a mainstay of the original park. Neighbouring Deno's Wonder Wheel Amusement Park, a separate attraction which has many rides suited to young children, expands your choices.
There are a number of food concessions in the park where you can find burgers, hotdogs, salads, sushi, BBQ and more. Nathan's hotdogs are a must try treat.
To pay for the rides at the park you purchase a Luna Card with credits to pay for the rides. The more credits you buy the lower the price per ride. From Monday to Thursday you can also purchase a 4 hour unlimited ride pass. See their official website for up to day pricing.

Luna Park is super fun and free to parooz and wander around! This iconic amusement park is bright and retro, packed with rides, games, food and treats! Highly recommend taking the subway down to Coney Island, lots of cool views and it’s only $3. We really had fun next door at Deno’s, which is free to enter as well as the pier. Beautiful beach area, soft fluffy sand! So fun, a Coney Island and NYC gem!

Nice park located right next to the beach. All the rides were open except for 1 coaster. Overall the rides were fun, but some of the rides are a little rough. The employees were friendly. It is pretty expensive!
This is one of those parks you hear about your entire life, so you have to go at least once. You should definitely get some Nathan's hotdogs while you are in the area!

We made the mistake of going during opening weekend. While the park was relatively empty, and lines were short, it was not worth the headache of dealing with an inadequately trained staff giving conflicting instructions and incorrect information. The rides were supposed to open at 11am, but it was actually about 11:30. Additionally, only half of the roller coasters were running (the entire reason why we went). After my son was stranded on the "Electric Eden" go-carts, it took them nearly half-an hour to provide assistance as they kept arguing with me telling me that all cars were back when I knew that they were not. When they finally went and helped him, they apologized. However, he was done after riding just a few rides. What a waste. I filed an incident report with Guest Services before we left. They indicated that management would follow up a few days later. It has been over two months, and we still haven't heard anything.

Absolutely loved Luna Park. This was our 1st visit and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Loved Cyclone and all of the others. We bought tickets with GoCity and then did an upgrade on the day to the bigger rides.

We had 2 children above 48 inches which were measured by the staff. So the staff member upsold us from $59.99 to $89.99 saying we could go to both parks and ride a bunch of different rides. When we tried to get the kids on the rides the staff members told us the kids were not big enough. Then we talked to a manager and we were told that we should not have been sold the higher priced tickets. The kids still had fun but we were disappointed that we spent $60 more than we needed to. Simplify your pricing. Please add some shady areas, we cooked.
