Liseberg

This is a money making machine. Yes, it's very beautiful, the Christmas decorations are very special, the detail is incredible. The overall vibe is just really jolly and fun. Most coasters are operating, the Ferris wheel is glowing, the food is excellent (although reindeer kebab?)... But behind all that is a smart machine to generate money. Additional to the entry fee you pay for every attraction. I paid 100 kr for the Valkyria ride. That's 10€ for 1 ride lasting 45 seconds. I'm used to pay for food and goodies in amusement parks. But paying for the rides themselves is beyond me. Another thing, you see a lot of people running around w/ huge candy bags they obviously have won. There's lottery wheels for 30 kr (3€) a pop. It is insane, how much money this park generates on the side. I can't imagine visiting w/ children. You'll end up paying a vacation.

Liseberg was an amazing experience! The winter atmosphere was magical with all the decorations. I was especially impressed by how accessible it is; it’s very friendly for people with disabilities, and with a companion's help, we were able to enjoy most of the rides easily. Pro tip: It gets very cold, so make sure to dress warmly! A must-visit in Gothenburg

Visited the park just before halloween and thought it was so fun! I did not do any rides, just walked around, but I felt it was still worth it. Decorations for halloween are everywhere, it really puts you in the mood. There arr some nice shops for food and gifts everywhere around, it reslly feels like a fair. Would definitely recommend to stop there for anyone visiting the city, this was beyond expectations!

We visited Liseberg on December 26th with my 3-year-old and chose the admission + rides pass, which gives access to all the attractions. The park is fantastic for kids, especially during the Christmas season. The decorations and festive theme were absolutely stunning — it really felt magical. Since Liseberg draws around 3 million visitors a year, some queues were quite long, particularly for the children’s rides, with waiting times of up to about 45 minutes. It’s worth being prepared for that, but the atmosphere and experience still made the visit worthwhile. Food prices were fairly reasonable for a theme park. We had a kebab meal for 115 SEK, which felt like a decent price. One of the highlights was that the Carousel (merry-go-round) is free for everyone, which adds a lovely festive touch and lets all visitors join in on the fun. Overall, Liseberg is a wonderful family destination during Christmas — magical decorations, lots for kids to enjoy, and a great festive vibe. Even with the queues, we had a really memorable day.

Well, overall it is definitely worth visiting, but check opening hours. We visited during the holiday season with guests from Germany, bought tickets at 4 pm without knowing it closes at 5 pm, abd there were no information or no one warmed us in the entry. Almost all rides were already closed. Unfortunately, we couldn’t enjoy the park properly, so make sure to plan your visit according to the schedule.

Loved valkyria, best rosllercoaster! Worth buying entrance only if you plan to visit the Christmas market, for example 1 ride. If plan to enjoy 2 or more rides, suggest buying the ticket that includes them already.

Visited juat after opening time 23rd Nov 25 sunday. Very small ques in the daytime was on the rides within a couple of loads. There were a few rides not operational. Christmas decorations were hood and Christmas stalls were very traditional.

We had a great time at Liseberg. Fun rides, good food and drinks, great concerts. Carrot was lucky and won a big Chocolate bar. Liseberg is probably the best amusement park in Scandinavia together with Tivoli in Copenhagen. Staying at Gothia tower made it is easy for us to walk to and from the park.

Liseberg has the most beautiful Christmas Market! I loved all the little vendors they had available. Vendors were selling Glogg (Swedish Mulled wine), Glühwein, reindeer falafel, salmon falafel, mittens, scarves, christmas ornaments, chocolate, preserved meats, etc. The Christmas market had a lot of fast food restaurants as well as sit down restaurants. You can ice skate or go on rides (ride pass sold separately). There were lots to do!

Fun place during Christmas. I didn't do the rides but I did the drinks and elk wraps. Then ended the day with cheese fries. I bought some really good cured beef sausages from here but customs took them away

An amazing holiday-filled amusement park w/ a Christmas market during the winter! The park was decorated sooo cute with lights everywhere. I would definitely come back here in a heartbeat. They have ice skating, a bunch of rides (kids and adults, lots of christmas market stores, and restaurants. I recommend getting the ride ticket so you can go on all the rides instead of having to pay for them individually.

AMAZING CHRISTMAS MARKET Liseberg amusement park has opened the biggest Christmas Market in Sweden with thousands of lights and Christmas attractions. Not to mention all the wonderful rides. We were lucky this year to stop by Göteborg and experienced a true "Winter Wonderland" in Liseberg. Combined with old fashioned Christmas stands and modern lights and games (for all ages) the Liseberg Christmas Market at the Liseberg amusement park is a must see. The price for general admission is only 110sek, which is under $20 and there's just so much to see and do. Definitely, definitely worth the value. If you are traveling with family in Göteborg this holiday season, do not miss this once in a year opportunity in Liseberg. Will definitely come back again next year. Our whole family had so much fun!

When I was a kid, I was afraid of rollercoasters. More specifically, I was afraid of upside-down rollercoasters. But when - at the age of 10, in the summer of 1994 - I was challenged to ride the upside-down rollercoaster at Liseberg, you know what? I did it. And it was awesome. Now I'm hooked on rollercoasters. And every time I go on one, or see one, or even think of one, I think of Liseberg. I also really dig the pink and green bunny mascots. They're what's up.

It was several years since I last visited Liseberg, when I recently decided to give it a try. The park has changed! To the much better! It now gives the feeling of a theme park. Many new attractions and better layout and cool exteriors. Flowers, bushes, cute houses, cute details. Way to go! You can buy either a pass for the attractions or pay separately. A few attraction is not included though. You can buy a booklet of single tickets to use for attractions can/or games ("5-kampen"). "Chocolate wheels" are typical Swedish amusement parks - you can win 2 kgs of chocolate, chips, sweets or even stuff to the household. The playhouse (Spelhuset) is for the gamers of arcade games. I found it rather expensive paying SEK5-10 for a few minutes game. Because of course - when you are having the most fun, it will all be over if you do not pay another golden coin (SEK10) to continue smashing the enemy! As an alternative to this, Liseberg has during May/June had a supernice deal - SEK90 and you can play all that you want the entire day! I stayed for 11 hours...Well. you need to take a break from the alarming noise once in a while. Don't forget to bring earplugs (seriously)! (Spelhuset has a separate entry at Yelp) There are quite a few good food places, some are real restaurants in the park. (see separate reviews) On crowded days, you probably need to make reservations or you can stand in the long lines for burgers. Drinking waters are everywhere (fountains or in the restrooms' taps) They accept AMEX.

Hard to give a grade, I may be unfair so read and judge for yourself. It's a premier tourist attraction for the city and if you like rides, I don't, there are plenty to choose from in an amazingly small area. If you are 3-7years old, there are all kinds of rides, stores, exhibitis, etc and it must be heaven. But everything costs money, so I'm not sure how parents feel about Liseberg. Concerts feature past prime stars, we saw Kris Kristofferson this summer, I didn't know he was still alive, bit he seemed like a nice guy, joyful, and I admire his songwriting talent. Going during the julmarknad during Christmas should have been fun but it was so crowded and there were too many stressed people there, they spoiled the spirit of Christmas for me. There were booths selling cheeses, sill, reindeer meat, furs, trinkets, vague renaissance faire-viking horn goblets and woolen slippers, roughly made toys, candies etc. All expensive, and for better value and experience, go instead to Saluhallen for the foodstuffs, or to one of the Viking fairs during the summer. For me, Christmas is when everyone should be a little kinder, more generous, but no, while waiting in line to see the Swedish Santa "tomten" a pappa tried to run me over with his carriage. When I tried to push the carriage off my foot so I could hop out of the way, he freaked out because he was going to miss gettimg his photo and I dared to touch his carriage and refused to get out of his way. The fact was I COULDN'T get away because my boot was stuck under his wheel. He kept pushing and yelling instead.of letting me get free. It got ugly and I was sad. The other parents and grandparents standing around shook their heads in disapproval making clucking sounds, but here is the difference between Sweden and America, no security, no phone filming of his behavior, no calling of police, no verbal support from onlookers to tell the guy to chill and let me know I wasn't alone in this public display of rage and violence. Not one worker appeared to see what was happening. Most of the workers seemed bored and tired, not Christmas cheerful, so I think it will be my last time there for Christmas. I don't know if it's the crowd or Liseberg's fault for not designing an atmosphere and experience that is joyful because I've been there several times with work during summer, both when the whole park was open just for us and when we went as a large group, and we had a great time, especially with the Femkamp coupon book where you compete in games.of skill and chance. I give it 3 stars in general, 1 star for Christmas.

Yaaay...the best amusement park I've ever been to. It has everything for everyone and lures out the most stubborn child from within. Almost every year, Liseberg surprises with a new attraction and this year it was Helix's turn. This monstreous ride had a budget of somewhat 200 million swedish krona and I must say-it's sooo worth it. Such an amazing ride, that you'll never forget. Liseberg has more to it, the wooden roller coaster Balder has a steep slope of 70 degrees that makes your stomach turn upside-down. Then you have Kanonen which accelerate your heart out, and then Flumride and Atmosfear which throws you up to see entire Gothenburg from its highest point..... Liseberg is soo much fun and if reading this makes you queezy, don't worry- you can always visit Gasten which is the haunted house of Liseberg with real actors. The house is worth a visit, not only for the thrill but also for the beautiful decor and the great actors that sometime sneak up on peole in the middle of the park. Still not hooked? Then you got the pentathlon game which you can do with some friends and have time for a beer or two in the various beer places around the park. Hungry? Then you go everything from Burger King and vegetarian buffé to fancy dining with white linen cloths. Did I mention the waffle bakery or even the dancing area? Hooked? Thought you might be .. ;-)

Scandinavia's largest amusement park! It is artistically and tastefully designed, quite enjoyable to stroll through even if you don't want to go on rides. What I'd really like is one of those unnaturally big Toblerone chocolate bar (3 feet at least?) that is one of the prizes you can win. Who wants a stuffed animal when there is 3 feet of chocolate?

I would probably say that if you're in Göteborg, you just have to make it out to Liseberg. It's like your traditional Scandinavian amusement park - full of rides, vendors, lights at night, and shops. I went during the winter, so it was insanely cold. They had reindeers and various other animals live and in sausage form. Roasted, sugared mandel (almonds), delicious flavors of honey, reindeer sausage, and churros. Last I went all the rides come free with a ticket, unlike Tivoli in Copenhagen.

Liseberg is a must for Tourists visiting Gothenburg for the first time. Its very easy accessible by tram and are situated in the middle of Gothenburg. Its not big compared to international theme parks in europe and in the U.S. Even though there are some nice thrillrides for the grown ups there are mostly fun things for kids between 4-12. Prices are high (as usual on these places) both for the rides as well as food and drinks. Something that are better here then the U.S themeparks is that the entrance is pretty cheap (around 90 sek/10 €/12 $) wich makes it somewhat better for parents that doesnt ride themselfes since you only have to buy the expensive ride bracelets for the kids. Oh and during peak season there are LOTS of people and LONG lines.

Liseberg is amazing! Helix is one of the best rides I've tried! Worth the line (but if possible you should buy tickets online in advance, you'll get to pick three "fast-passes" that let's you skip the line). For food I would recommend The Green Room, a vegetarian buffet restaurant. Really good veggie food, about 140 SEK per head, eat as much as you like. Go have fun!

Hugely overrated, full of drunken wannabe partypeople in the evening, wearing fake rabbit's ears, yelling the same two or three words in Swedish over and over again (not unlike German people in weekends). Scary for kids, therefore. Mediocre attractions, small area, quite crowded, not comparable to the hype created by its advertising. Horribly cooked food. Never again.

Liseberg is somewhere that actually has fun activities for people of all ages. It's not just rollercoasters - in the summer they have music concerts, sing alongs and at Christmas there is a lovely market. It's one of the major tourist attractions in Gothenburg but it's definitely still worth doing... and if you're living in Gothenburg and like amusement parks then you should definitely think about investing in a gold pass.
