If you are in Copenhagen, be sure to take a visit to Tivoli Gardens. Founded in 1843, this fantastical attraction was visited by both Hans Christian Anderson and Walt Disney. It is open during all four seasons, and has specific attractions for every holiday, making it a must-visit no matter what season it may be.
At night, fairytale-like lights brighten up the park to create an ethereal experience. Enjoy walking through the gardens, taking a ride on a rollercoaster, or checking out their musical attractions and shows.
Rollercoaster rides at Tivoli range are designed to match their scenery. Some are nostalgic and evoke a certain charm and emotion, such as the carousels, while others are thrilling, like as the Vertigo, where you will turn upside down at 100 km/hr. Their rides are historically some of the oldest in Europe. Tivoli Gardens even has live music every day. You can listen to typical Danish music, Tivoli’s Big Band tunes, and music from all over the world.
You can expect costumes to be in typical Danish style. To explore more contemporary Nordic styles, check out Samsoe, an incredibly chic nordic brand stylistically driven from Copenhagen street style. Here you will find style that will afford you cozy hygge, with unique cutting-edge designs. You can also find dressy wear for disco going.
Tivoli Gardens also features amazing cuisine from all around the world. Many people do enjoy picnic lunching at the gardens when the season allows it. But Tivoli Gardens also has traditional Danish cuisine, French cuisine, a seafood bistro, world-renowned hamburgers, and a vegetarian cuisine restaurant. Alternatively, they also have food stand eating options as well at Tivoli Food Hall, which was designed by the same architect who designed the glass pyramid of the Louvre in Paris. There you can eat Islandic to North African food, and everything in between.
