About this tour
Luna Park is Australia's oldest theme park, operating since 1912 in St Kilda with unlimited access to all rides during your visit. You'll experience carnival attractions ranging from the iconic Great Scenic Railway—a wooden roller coaster and the world's oldest continually operating one of its kind—to heritage carousel rides and modern thrills. The park spans several hours of entertainment depending on ride queues and your pace; check the website for weather-dependent ride closures on the day.

What to expect
You'll enter through the park's famous giant Moon head and have full access to the ride roster. The Great Scenic Railway is the centrepiece—a large wooden coaster that loops around the park's exterior at speed, operated with a visible brakeman on board. Beyond that, you can move between carnival rides, heritage attractions, and newer installations at your own pace. Ride queues vary by time and season; check the website before arrival as some rides may close due to weather or mechanical issues. You'll be free to ride repeatedly and spend anywhere from an hour to a full afternoon depending on crowd levels and your appetite for re-rides.
