Visit Luna Park on Opening Day for Just $5

Luna Park just made a huge announcement that will surely make Coney Island lovers smile. On opening day the park will offer free admission for the first time ever! The park is asking for a minimum donation of $5 and visitors will receive a wrist band and have access to all of the park's rides.

The $5 will go to a great cause, too! This year the park is partnering with The Mayor's Fund to Advance NYC and 90% of the proceeds will go to  Girl Scout Troop 6000. This troop is dedicated to supporting girls who live in New York City's shelter system.

Opening day is Saturday March 24 at 11am.

“We are excited to offer free admission to all park goers this year in exchange for a donation to Troop 6000,” said Fernando Velasquez, general manager of Central Amusement International, said in a statement. “Opening Day signals the beginning of the summer season, and it will be especially fun this year as we help to support girls throughout the city.”

“We’re incredibly excited to partner with Luna park in kicking off their 2018 season. For generations, the opening of amusements at Coney Island has heralded a season of fun for children across the City. We’re thrilled that the start of this season will do so much to support some of New York City’s most inspiring young people – the girls of Troop 6000,” said Darren Bloch, executive director of the Mayor’s Fund, said in a statement. “I thank the leadership of Luna Park for their support and service to Brooklyn and our entire city.”
