Entry was so easy, the staff were so friendly, chatty, and able to speak good English which was a plus. The garden was mapped out great and easy to get around and be able to find where your going. Very clean place. Halloween decorations were just beautiful, they really went out of there way, the place looked outstanding and festive. Would 100% recommend anyone to go to tivoli gardens.

My visit to Tivoli Gardens became one of the most unforgettable moments of my trip to Copenhagen. The park felt like a romantic escape filled with soft lights, gentle music, and the scent of blooming flowers. Lanterns illuminated winding paths, rose gardens glowed in the evening air, and swans drifted quietly across the shimmering lake. I loved exploring the Moorish Palace, its golden façade reflecting in the water, and the peaceful corners near the Glass Hall Theatre, where everything seemed to slow down. The vintage wooden roller coaster added a charming touch of nostalgia, echoing softly through the trees. Tivoli is perfect for travelers seeking beauty, atmosphere, and magical evenings that linger long after the visit.

It was easy to get tickets online and we were fortunate when we were there that the open air concert was performed by cool and the gang, which took me back to my youth.

Bought tickets online to avoid queues and walked straight in. Collect wrist bands from machines inside the park and enjoy your day. The gardens were beautiful and there is a great selection of rides to cater for all ages (some of the larger rides do not open till late afternoon). Prices for food are expensive but plenty of options, especilly in the food market.
