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.

Fun place to spend time with family and friends. Kids enjoyed unlimited rides. All rides are safe and was being checked nonstop for their proper functioning by park staff. Area is clean. No garages nor messy grounds nor smelly left overs noted/found.

🎢 This amusement park has rides for all ages — from thrilling roller coasters to more moderate attractions, there’s really something for everyone! 🎠🎡
You’ll also find plenty of food options: snacks, sandwiches, sweet and savory meals, cold drinks, and hot beverages 🍔🍦🥤.
The park operates on a prepaid card system — you need to buy a plastic card and load it with money to use for the rides. Be careful though: there are two different amusement parks right next to each other, and they use different cards! Some rides require the red card, others the blue card, so make sure you get the right one depending on where you go. 🎟️🔴🔵
There’s a subway station right nearby, which makes it super easy to get to the park 🚇.
And just steps away, you’ll find the seaside, with long beaches and nice boardwalks — perfect for relaxing in the sun ☀️🏖️.
All in all, a fun and convenient place for a day out with friends!

Grew up here and now come every weekend with my kiddos in the warm seasons! We love spending time at the beach then Luna Park afterwards, it's so convenient and fun, I buy the pass with most credits and do a couple of rides each visit which I find is very cost efficient. My kids can't wait to ride the Cyclone 🎢 when they get tall enough🎡😆

Luna Park at Coney Island is an absolute blast and a must-visit for anyone looking for classic New York fun. The atmosphere is electric, with the iconic sounds of laughter, music, and the roar of roller coasters filling the air. There’s something for everyone, from thrilling rides like the Cyclone and Thunderbolt to family-friendly attractions and fun carnival games.
The park is well organized, and despite the crowds, the staff keeps things running smoothly and with a smile. Food options are typical for an amusement park, think hot dogs, pizza, and funnel cakes, but they hit the spot after a few hours of rides.
What really stands out is the nostalgic charm mixed with modern updates, giving you that old-school Coney Island vibe without feeling outdated. Whether you’re a local or a tourist, Luna Park offers a memorable day of excitement by the beach. Highly recommended for families, friends, or even a fun date!

It was an awesome experience. An all-inclusive ticket, which grants you access to all the rides, costs one hundred dollars. However, if you can't afford that, I suggest you pay for the individual rides you'd prefer. It's also worth noting that you can only access the lockers with your card, not cash. If you go in June, be sure to dress semi-warm as it still gets a bit chilly and might rain in the area. All in all, it's a fun experience.
