OUR VISION

Luna Park Sydney will have a sustainable approach to the operation of our successful harbour‐side entertainment precinct. By involving our community in the implementation of our vision, we hope to spread sustainable practices throughout the supply chain; with our staff, contractors and crew; and with our guests, clients and event attendees. By demonstrating best practice in these channels, we hope to influence the adoption of sustainable practices by others. We aim not only to share our knowledge and methods with other stakeholders, but to learn from their practices as well. Our commitment to reduce resource consumption, improve waste disposal, and reduce waste creation and greenhouse gases, combined with the above positive community contributions, will help us reach our goal of operating a sustainable entertainment precinct.

Since reopening in 2004  Luna Park Sydney has been continuously improving the sustainability of our operation. We are committed  to firstly better understand our impact and secondly identify ways to minimize negative and maximize the positive environmental, social and economic legacies of our venue operations.

Luna Park Sydney hosts over 1.2 million visitors yearly, not just in the amusement park, but across 12 function venues, an event auditorium and a harbour‐side restaurant. Waste creation, resource consumption, transportation and greenhouse gas emissions from such operations impact our environment.

It is therefore our aim to minimise this impact by implementing  improved sustainable practices across all our operations. Long and short‐term targets will be set and progress towards their achievement will be monitored regularly by the Luna Park Sydney Sustainability Committee. We will work towards comparability with the international standard ISO 20121 Events Sustainability Management Systems among other relevant benchmarks. Within our planning we aim to balance our sustainability initiatives with logistical and financial considerations.

Luna Park Sydney has a long‐term perspective that respects the interdependence of the economy, environment and society in sustainable development. Hence we will integrate sustainable principles into all aspects of venue operations including event production, park operations, procurement, transport and logistics.

We aim to surpass guest and client expectations in the experience that we deliver to them. Providing a comfortable and accessible environment that adheres to the highest levels of health and safety is a priority, as is the satisfaction of our clients and guests.

The vibe: iconic must see and do when visiting St Kilda. We visited the hottest day in history 😉 so be sure to pack a hat and sunscreen and correct clothing because the rides seating is all really hot to sit on against your skin.

What we purchased: 2 x 13 year + unlimited rides pass 1 x entry pass with inclusion of one ride to be used

Unfortunately the ticket staff on entry did not give us the piece of paper they are supposed to hand out for the entry pass with inclusion of one ride which delayed the extremely long line of people waiting to get on the roller coaster and all the other people already seated on the roller coaster while staff tried to sort out the issue. (At least everyone was in the shade) We showed proof of purchase and the whole system just didn’t make sense. What’s the point of giving the entry people a wristband and if they’re just going to use the ticket printout to get onto the ride so why don’t they just check approp the box that’s on the wristband they give to the entry pass only. Floored system and it shouldn’t be that hard. 😤 It’s not like working with millions on dollars here guys, also why would Anyone rip off a roller coaster operator for a Ride. Frustrating for apt Of people in that moment but it did get sorted out “out of good faith”.

All in all, the roller coaster is like 110 years old and is the highlight of the rides at Luna Park.

What I’m extremely dissatisfied with: the staff and rude operators were just rude and it was as if we and all other paying customers were an Inconvenience, at least this was my observation. Suggest management work on this to improve their PR skills because they wouldn’t have jobs if it wasn’t for paying customers. One man was super lovely and he had a beard and didn’t catch his name and the ticket entry lady was lovely too even though she forgot to get Venus the white ticket for the entry pass one ticket purchase we made.

No difference if you buy tickets online or at entry.

Parking might be an issue if you go on any other day that is it a public holiday you will have to pay for parking there are limited parks that only allow certain times to use the parks for like up to two hours .

All in all we still had fun and tried to remain positive and enjoy our time and creat memories. It was just disappointing that the staff made it an unenjoyable experience when we had to be exposed to them or subjected to them so we could get on the rides, and that is the reason why I’m leaving 2 stars. Some Staff need customer Relations development or get into another industry where they don’t deal...
