  • Grona Lund is a waterfront amusement park in Stockholm, Sweden. This may be one of the densest parks in the world. It's truly amazing how much they pack in! Despite being less than 10 acres in size, the park features 8 different roller coasters, 3 different drop towers, some dark rides, and so much more. This video talks about everything you need to know about this awesome park!

    Man I went here so many times as a kid. Never went on the coasters, can't stand high speeds and such but I loved the funhouse and the games not to mention the food and the atmosphere in general is just cozy. It's strangely heartwarming hearing such a glowing review of a childhood staple for me

    I love that they got a Giant Flying Carpet ride. The sound it makes as it goes down is amazing. I love it when it pauses on top before flipping direction. Weird Al would approve.

    They have really made a lot out of the available area and nothing looks like a bad compromise. The new expansion is very beautiful and will even step up the game in the coaster thrill department.

    The concerts have great artists and you can get a season pass for 395 kr that lets you get into the park any time you want. This summers (2024) lineup includes: Alice Cooper, Keane, Bruce Dickinson, The Offspring, Ellen Kraus, Heart, Hellacopters, Dropkick Murphys, Deep Purple, Mando Diao, Alphaville and Dizzy. There are lots of smaller - often Swedish - artists too.

    All the names were impossible to understand if you didn't have subtitles, but not easy when you don't know how Swedish is pronounced or how the Swedish letters ÅÄÖ sound. I haven't been to Gröna Lund since I was a child, so it was interesting to see what the park looks like today. Very good work.

    A small correction. One can drive out to the park without any permits. Finding parking however is not trivial. Especially in the future when the park has expanded out into their parking lot. A parking lot that they have wanted to expand out into for decades, eventually the city decided to say yes.
    The park has gotten a lot more roller coasters in recent years. Jetline were effectively their oldest one, and sadly it won't open again as it will be taken down this winter. Hopefully it gets replaced with something of similar ride duration. Since that were part of the appeal with Jetline, it took a fair bit of time to ride, and given the number of trains it operated at once it churned through the queue at a decent pace.
    Also, I personally see it as a missed opportunity that Monster doesn't go through Insane, but maybe that were impossible, if only Insane had slightly bigger holes in it. Given how most of the other coasters intermingles with each other, it would have been interesting to see.

      Awfully safe for a death park considering jetline has been standing since 1988 and we know it was manufacturing error that caused the accident, the part that broke was only a month or to into its lifespan.
