Melbourne's Luna Park is a historic amusement park located on the foreshore of Port Phillip Bay in St Kilda, Victoria, an inner suburb of Melbourne, Australia. It opened on 13 December 1912 and has been operating almost continuously ever since.

This was the first of the four Luna Parks that were built in Australia, of which only Melbourne and Luna Park Sydney are still operating. The other two, now defunct, Luna Parks were at Glenelg in South Australia (19301934) and at Redcliffe in Queensland (19441966).

Full list of rides:
 
  • Roller coasters

  • Scenic Railway - built in 1911, the Scenic Railway is the oldest continually-operating roller coaster in the World, and one of only 2 in existence requiring a brakesman to stand in the middle of the train.
