Classic fairground games and attractions provide hours of entertainment at one of the biggest theme parks on the Venetian Riviera.
New Jesolandia (Parco Divertimenti New Jesolandia) is among the many family-friendly theme parks at the beach resort of Lido di Jesolo. Home to over 35 attractions and confectionary stands, New Jesolandia appeals to everyone from children to thrill-seekers. Discover roller coasters, bumper cars, a big wheel and more, spread over an area of 5 acres (2 hectares).
Get your heart pumping on the Matrix, a pendulum-style ride that rotates at high speeds and swings to vertigo-inducing heights. Or, sit in the two-person pod of the Sling Shot and wait anxiously to be propelled into the air. For young children there’s a ball pool, carousel, multi-lane slide, trampolines and a mini roller coaster with cars inspired by The Flintstones cartoon.
Have fun racing around the go-kart track, ride a quad bike and collide with friends on the bumper cars. Feel the wind in your face as you travel around the hairpin bends and speed down the slopes of roller coasters. On the Ferris wheel you’ll experience views of the entire park and out toward the Adriatic Sea coastline. Be prepared to get splashed on the Colorado River log flume.
Try your luck at traditional fun fair games such as hoopla and tin can shooting. Balloons, teddy bears and soccer merchandise, including balls, jerseys and scarves, are some of the prizes on offer. There are two food stands for when hunger strikes. Snack on crepes, hotdogs, popcorn and frittelle calde, which is a pastry similar to a pancake.
You’ll find the attraction a short drive from the major hotels of Lido di Jesolo. Car parking is available nearby. Aqualandia, SEA LIFE Jesolo Lido and Tropicarium Park are some nearby attractions.
New Jesolandia is open daily from May to September. General admission is free purchase tokens for the individual rides once inside.
