Visit the Parque de la Costa for a fun-filled and action-packed day of adventures for all ages. Discover over 50 fairground-style rides and shows suitable for everyone from daredevil adults to small children. Attend shows that vary from fairytales to concerts by tribute bands. Just an hour by train from downtown Buenos Aires, Parque de la Costa offers an easy and enjoyable escape from busy city life.
Prepare for steep drops, switchbacks, multiple loops and corkscrews on the park’s high-speed roller coasters, Boomerang, Challenge and Whirlpool. Experience a feeling of weightlessness as you gyrate and swing to vertigo-inducing heights on the Pendulum. The Sillas Voladorasis a swing ride adaptation of a traditional carousel.
From the bumper boats to the carousel, bumper cars and pirate ship, families will find plenty of fun. Meet animatronic dinosaurs inside a cave, watch for mummies in a spine-tingling house of horrors and engage in a game of laser tag. Appreciate views of the canals and waterways of Tigre while riding the Vuelta al MundoFerris wheel. Toddlers will love a mock supermarket and miniature versions of some of the park’s bigger rides.
The entertainment at Parque de la Costa goes beyond the many rides and games. Open-air dance, music and theater shows take place on weekends and public holidays. Watch an interpretation of Cinderella, attend a dramatic zombie show and sing and dance along to a Queen tribute act. Fill up on burgers, hotdogs and ice cream at kiosks, a food court and a pub.
Located in Tigre, the park is about 20 miles (33 kilometers) from downtown Buenos Aires. Catch the train from Retiro station to Delta station and then walk for 1 minute to the entrance. Alternatively, take the Tren de la Costa tourist train to the park’s entrance. In the same area are the Aquafan waterpark, China Town food and shopping center and Niní Marshall Theater.
