Description
Luna Park, Melbourne's iconic amusement park, has excited and delighted guests for over 105 years. In 1912, the JD Williams Amusement Company created a futuristic world of crazy possibilities and endless escapes, immediately embedding itself into the culture of bayside St Kilda. Today, Luna Park retains the charm of yesterday with rides and architecture from a century ago alongside contemporary thrill rides that still keep guests screaming for more. The famous Luna Park Face has changed many times over the course of 10 decades. Originally it was made from chicken wire, hessian and cement render, and had illuminated eyes that rolled from side to side. The face underwent its most recent facial reconstruction in 1997. Luna Park's Great Scenic Railway is 105 years old and is the oldest continuously operating roller coaster of its kind in the world. The track was originally built from 65,674 metres of Oregon pine that was shipped from Canada in 1911. The Ghost Train was purchased from the Pretzel Amusement Company (USA) in 1934 and became the symbol of the park after the Great Depression. The Carousel is 104 years old and has been restored to its original glory by a team of experts.
