TIVOLI GARDENS
Copenhagen, Denmark
 Park News - (12/14/09) Tivoli has announced that a massive wind turbine located just off the coast of Copenhagen will provide power for the park starting next season. The turbine is undergoing final testing now, but is expected to be able to provide enough power for the entire park… while the wind blows at least. When it doesn’t, the park will rely on the city’s power grid as backup.
(8/24/09) A great review of Tivoli’s new Veritgo thrill ride has been posted to Lifthill.net.
(6/9/09) A fun trip report from Tivoli Gardens has been posted to Theme Park Review this week, including some good shots of the crazy new Vertigo ride. Just a warning, as this is Europe we’re talking about, so your bound to run into a few naked drawings or statues here and there… especially with Robb pointing them out along the way. You’ve been warned…
2010 - Petzi’s World - (12/24/09) I’ve been sent a couple of pictures showing off
Klump Island, a new play area themed to the beloved Danish comic strip character, Rasmus Klump, aka… “Petzi”. (…not Eddie Murphy’s Klumps as some of you may have been thinking!) The new 1,530 sq. meter play area was designed for Tivoli Gardens by Jumana Brodersen and The J Co LLC.
(11/16/09) A new kids land based on a Danish cartoon character will feature Petzi and his friends (Pelle, Pingo, Old Salt). The 13,000 sq. ft. area will be filled with various attractions, and will replace the playground next to Tivoli Lake. You can read the announcement here.
???? - Tivoli Kanten (Tivoli Edge) - In Development - (8/14/08) Tivoli Gardens is looking to expand the park experience out into the Western side of the park that faces “Bernstorffsgade” with the creation of Tivoli Edge (Tivoli Kanten), a new dynamic looking outer edge look for the park in this area that can be used as a year-round activity area. The look they envision is quite striking, creating what appears to be three-story structure that has a look almost like a giant glass curtain. All the great artwork showing off the look of the project can be seen here.
