I live 20 min train ride from Tivoli. I havent been there since I was a kid. Really happy its as popular as ever. That HC Andersen -ride Is known as a lovers ride. young ppl go in there... and come back out with their hair and clothes a bit ruffled... ;) Great video. Thx
4:57 - That's Rasmus Klump. A very popular and well know cartoon in Denmark. He and his friends were created by the married couple Vilhelm Hansen and Carla Hansen. Vilhelm Hansen was the artist behind the amiable figures, while Carla was the author and wrote the texts for the comics.
@@disKoverwithKatieandAndrew A little warning, though I havent been there myself in those times, but have family who have, and have advised against it. It is PACKED with people, so much so that they could hardly move forward. If you, like most other americans I've heard of, have need of personal space when you go places, prepare to walk shoulder-to-shoulder with strangers the entire time. If you can manage that, then yes, it should really be a sight to behold!
Walt Disney actually visited Tivoli many times to get inspiration to his Disneyland. Yes, Tivoli is in the middle of Copenhagen, but when Tivoli opened in 1843, it was actually located just outside one of the gates into what was the fortified city of Copenhagen. Copenhagen was up to the mid 1850s a fortified city with 4 gated entrances of which one was approximately where City Hall Square is today. The lake in Tivoli is a remnant of the moat that once surrounded Copenhagen. The last part of the moat was filled in around 1888.
I love that most Danes stoppede filming everyThing. A couple of years ago everybody had their phones out during concerts. After Covid it changed. People might take a couple of pictures, but after that they will fully focuse on the artist. I love we Are in it together again ❤️❤️❤️
Something to note about the vendor shops inside Tivoli, is that they're privately owned and operated -which is part of the reason why they don't appear as some franchised merch stores. Each shop owner has their own themes and items they sell, and it isn't controlled by Tivoli itself (ofc they oversee what is being sold, but they don't actively enforce any specifics or Tivoli themed guideline like you'd see in most American theme parks where the park typically owns everything.
Some quick fun facts: The pirate ship is "just" a restaurant. The wierd animal you saw at the begining, that you were wondering about is a seal. He's from some old danish comics called "Rasmus Klump", the same are the other animals standing next to him (The Bear, the Pinguin and the Pelican) The Fun house you were in stands mostly unchanged from back when I was a kid back in the 70's. The oldest still existing amusement partk in the world, Bakken which is nearly 450 years old, is just some 10 miles from Tivoli.
Loved to see your day through Tivoli. I haven't been there in years, and it is nice to see it again, through new eye's. You comment on things, that we do not really think about, having been to Tivoli many times, through out the years, as a child, and again with my own children. I need to visit again Soon'ish. I bet i can borrow my grandchild, or just go with the husband.
While Tivoli NOW is in the middle of Copenhagen, back when it was founded, it was the first thing to be allowed outside the city's moat and ramparts! Actually the lake in Tivoli is part of the old moat surrounding the medieval Copenhagen! If you look at a map of Copenhagen today, you can see where the moat and ramparts used to be: Start at Tivoli, and then follow a semi circle north and east all the way up to the star fortress of "Kastellet". on the way you will see several parks/ green spaces, which the leftovers of the old defences! For a more complete history of Copenhagen, do visit the Museum of Copenhagen, not far from Tivoli and the National museum of Denmark! And BTW ... It's nice to hear you've done your research properly! SO many You-tubers mistakenly say that Tivoli is the second oldest Theme park in the world ... Ever heard of Pratter in Vienna, Austria? Opened in 1766! Though we STILL have the oldest theme park with Bakken (1583), which started around spring in Klampenborg, north of Copenhagen. ;)
You did Tivoli the best way. All in all day, experiencing everything. :) So glad you appreciated it and enjoyed yourselves so much. I am a local and buy the season pass every year, so everytime I am down town I take a little walk in Tivoli. Its one of my favorite places to escape from the rest of world and the daily stress.
People often miss the midnight fireworks at Saturdays, and those that don't are usually very impressed by them. So maybe something for your next trip to tivoli.
It's also very beautiful in December with all the Christmas decorations and fairylights and the stalls selling all sorts of Christmas treats that you can smell all over the park. It's very charming and romantic. I haven't been during december in many years, but last I was there, there were Christmas markets with trees surrounding them like little villages in pine forests. It was very nice. If you're ever in Denmark during December, you should check it out. Lot of the cities here also puts up the same kind of wooden cottages surrounded by forests of buyable Christmas trees. They usually sell very nice things and foods, but some are a *bit* expensive. But It's a charming experience :)
Man, if you loved the HC Andersen dark ride, you would ADORE the Mine, which is by the arcade game section! It's a mix of a log flume and dark ride, when I lived in the city I'd ride that thing a billion times for the vibes!
i´m so happy you had an amazing time in Tivoli Gardens. it is a beautiful place and they have halloween and christmas which is absolutely magical. I live about 15 minutes from there and go all the time, we can purchase different tiers of yearly passes and we have two, one for me with included wristband for one person unlimited rides and then we have a card that allow us to bring in four friends and four children aged 3-7 on the card + 25% discount on the wrist bands for the rides. I go for several concerts every year "Fredags Rock" which host great artists, both Danish but also other artists from around the world. Again, i am happy that you had a magical time there and yes, we are also addicted to our phones but when we go out, we spend time with our family/friends and enjoy the sights and surroundings :)
I love rollercoasters and normaly the crazier/faster the better, In my opinion, and that old wooden one is neither the fastest, craziest, no loops, but it's just so special/charming. Most likely my fav rollercoaster.
It´s very simple. If you wanna try just 3 things/rides it´s cheaper to buy the ride pass. I think it´s done like this deliberately so that you do not have to take out your wallet all the time but just can go around and enjoy what you want. If you never been to Tivoli before you should definitely buy the pass. By the way. Remember your tickets are valid all day/night the day you purchase it so you can decide to leave the park for other sightseeing, meals, a nap at the hotel, etc and still come back. Two nights a week there are fireworks at midnight. Rides close at midnight and normally empties is empty 00:40 ish.
Nice video. You should really come back and experience Tivoli in December. There is such a cozy atmosphere with the Christmas markets and all the lights. Btw... in Danish we say "skål" when we cheers - not "prost" which is German.
Oh this made me wanna go there again so bad ❤ Was there once on a romantic trip in october and I tell you! The fun and cozy autumn and Halloween decor is all my little gothic heart desires 🎃 Got a cup of spiced, warm apple juice in the evening and it has become an autumn fave to make myself each year 🖤🍂
den flyvende kuffert (the flying suitcase) has been my fav ride since it was made. and the fun house.. the coaster was refurbished back to the original mountain design for the anervesary some years ago. usually in summer there will be fireworks in the evening as well.
You should definitely try the big roller coaster at Bakken. It is one of the oldest wooden roller coasters in the world and has little jumps on the way down, so you literally lift off your seat. It is much better than the ones in Tivoli, I think. And yes. The small houses in the lake are for the ducks.
Also I can recommend the Bakken amusement park that is very close, to the north of Copenhagen. Bakken opened in 1583 (441 years ago!) and is the world's oldest operating amusement park.
You always stay the entire day - and evening - in Tivoli Gardens. That´s just how it is, you don´t want to go home, too much to see and do. I have spent a lot of family time in there, it is lovely. You got the essence of Tivoli, loved your walk-through. I forgive you for the South German/Bavarian music - that was slightly off - but so is Tivoli. It is all over the place and very charming. ❤
It's not normal for foreigners to actually like our liquorice 😄 but yeah, mixed with chocolate, honey and/or ice cream it gets easier. The kind of ketchup you had with your bratwurst is what we'd call sausage ketchup, it's got quite a bit of apple porridge in it, making it taste more fruity and sweet. Heinz is more considered a general purpose ketchup that works okay with fries. Don't know if you tried the mustard too, we have a whole range of that to choose from as well, ranging from sweet french to American yellow to regular Danish, dijon and not least the coarse German sausage mustard. And then there's Remoulade, which isn't necessarily a Danish invention, we just perfected it. Did you try a Danish red or grilled hotdog with "the usual" while visiting? Anyway, Tivoli isn't huge, the number of rides is quite limited and nothing outrageous. But it has a great location and the garden part is impeccable. A lot of locals have a season entry pass, just to be able to go enjoy the park when they feel like it. The unlimited rides pass is expensive, but single ride tickets are way more, so if you plan to have 3 rides or more, you might as well get the unlimited wristband. And for wealthy families with kids it makes sense to get a room at the Nimb hotel that has exits directly to the gardens... just let the kids roam freely within the park and a wristband with a phone number and you can enjoy it at your own pace.
If you would like to go on a pirateship you should go to the danish themepark Fårup. They have an adventerne trail where you go through a pirate ship. From a tjene park enjoyer in Denmark.
Regarding cameras/phones - as a dane I believe people should ask themselves two questions: "Am I or others really ever going to look at all that footage again?" and "Is obtaining this footage worth it as opposed to enjoying the experience to the fullest in the moment?". I think most danes would say no to the latter and choose the full experience and that's why you'll see a lot fewer cameras here than in many other countries. We might take a few pictures to show the overall ambience or something truly special but that's about it. Of course, if you're making content it's an entirely different story. Glad to see you had fun. 😄👍
Neither Tivoli nor Bakken are actually theme parks. They were built as amusement parks. None of them really has a specific theme as such. It's a mixed bag so basically amusement.
The snow queen in the Flying Suitcase H. C Andersen ride is the OG Frozen 😁 Loved the video, it's cool to see the excitement from someone who also worked at Disneyland, letting us Danes see what makes our country exiting 😁
the small houses on the lake is indeed duck houses :) they were very common in most lakes all over Denmark when i was a kid. I haven't been in Tivoli for almost 12 yeaars now, so it was nice to see it again, but i don't think i will go for a long time since its so expencive
the cream on top of ice in denmark is often made of 38% buttermilk that has been wiped. but alot of places also mixe it up with milk I think, so the amount buttery taste can differ. personally i prefere the pure buttermilk wipped. if you wont good quality ice in denmark i would recommend "Beier" they make there ice cream them self and you can mustly just ask if you can have a taste test before deciding wich ice you wonna buy, its also a good way to test if it got crystals in it (could happen now and then)

Andrew living out his Roller Coaster Tycoon dreams!
23:02 small correct, you did not get softice, you just got Icecream :), I think what is called softice here, the term in the US is Soft Serve Ice Cream, so it comes out of a machine, most common is vanilla, 2nd would be chocolate and then strawberry, you can typically get one or a combo of the 3 in a cone.
The Theater behind you with the Peacock is "The Pantomime Theater". And old Italian, Silent Art, for all visitors to understand and which is near only being performed in Denmark! The Actors come from The Royal Danish Ballet and it is free during opening hours, if not wanting to sit down, I think? It tells stories about love and problems by that. Our young Hero mostly solves all problems.
You should have used the bow with the arrow placed to the other side, at the same side as the arm! It is much more stable when shooting that way! And the Rollercoaster is Old but I hardly think much original is still left, as most has been replaced during the years. By that it became blown up by the Germans during the war as a retribution, and just a short time ago, the last of the "mountains" has been rebuilt as originally!
They did have "grouped" when i was there 20 years ago. Now a days i am fairly sure it count each person entering when they scan there "tivoli pas" or tickers to enter a ride. When max people have entered the next person simply cant get in since the bar locks.
A wonder land - located in the very center of Copenhagen - the boats are not on a track - things are more loose - people are expected to take care of themselves and others - no it is not polite to be in the phones while eating or socializing
Why on earth the BAVARIAN music!?!?! And “prost” is absolutely also Bavarian/German … ;-) Try “SKÅL” next time 🍻 Velkommen til DANMARK 🇩🇰 … but otherwise really fun-positive-informative video by a very likeable couple 🇺🇸 By the way will there be more VLOGs about you visit to København (Copenhagen)?
its becouse its this time a year not so many people if you come in the sommer you will see its all fill up an lines everywhare also there is a year pass whare you can go listen to music an so each month in the sommer if you Come back you need to try Bakken is also a great place
Just a small correction, also to Danes. Walt Disney had allready decided to build a theme park. One that was better than his first. Which was just amusemnt park with some rides and not much more. He had conceptualized his vision for this new park and the feeling one should get when visiting his park, or the 'vibe' as we would say today. And it's when he visits Tivoli that he for the first time experienced that feeling he imagined people should feel when visiting his future amusement park. And it's in this way Tivoli inspired Walt Disney. Tivoli showed him how to create a park that sort of gives you a warm fluffy hug. Walt Disney had already planned out what later became disney land. Infact he visited Tivoli because he was on a research trip.
I love this video, im from denmark, i live in viborg☺️ can you try to live in Legoland, themepark hotel in Billund, Denmark for a weekend😍 that would be amazing to watch😁✨ i gave you a follow too and look forward to wisit usa one day in return🌹
ah yes, the typical danish weather .. gray :D i used to have a all-year pass in my youth just so i could pass thru the garden basicly. But also so i could draw from their cash maschines & get a (madatory?) softice on the way visiting the local big import comics stores. And probably spend a fortune on the arcade machines. in the weird dystopian future we live in currently where most banks is cashless & dont even have a cash machine, the park is still one of the best places to get cash if you need bills & coins. Smartphones i certainly still a plague in copenhagen. It isnt uncommon to see someone young trying to multitask starting into their phone, holding a starbucks coffee, wearing big music headphones while driving on a bicycle. How they manage to steer (and is still alive) is beyond me. Currently the tv is showing a goverment commercial warning parents about kids being targeted on smart phones.
Pity that you chosed the cheap food, some is actually quite bad, next time you should go to for example "Grøften" more expensive ? yes but it's worth it
I live 20 min train ride from Tivoli. I havent been there since I was a kid. Really happy its as popular as ever.
That HC Andersen -ride Is known as a lovers ride. young ppl go in there... and come back out with their hair and clothes a bit ruffled... ;)

you should totaly come back for halloween and chrismas. tivoli is super beatyful in those times 😊😊 love the vid do keep up the good work
Thank you, we'd love to visit during another season!

We also have the oldest theme park in the world, not very far from there. Bakken. :) Searched your channel, but didn't see a video on it. :D
Didn't make it to Bakken on this trip. But it is on our list for the future!
It's about 300 years older! Crazy to think about.
@@disKoverwithKatieandAndrew so much better that tivoli.... 10 times better
That peacock carpet 1:10 behind you is made our former Queen margrethe the 2. When the teater needed renovation.
And Bakken has free entrance, so if you have a picnic with you and dont do any rides and games, you can visit Bakken without paying a single penny
I watched this again and my favorite part is Andrew giggling on the 3rd oldest roller coaster. Love how you both enjoy life! Keep DisKovering!!!!!
We will have to come to Ireland next and split the G!
Thank you for being so positive and happy. Glad that you spend time during the evening when the lights come on and Tivoli is most magic.
Thank you!!!
Loved to see you guys experience in Tivoli. Thank you for sharing your experiences
And I do hope you had an amazing time in Denmark 😊
i watched the whole thing thinking you guys were like famous becasuse the quality is so good
I love that most Danes stoppede filming everyThing. A couple of years ago everybody had their phones out during concerts. After Covid it changed. People might take a couple of pictures, but after that they will fully focuse on the artist. I love we Are in it together again ❤️❤️❤️
Something to note about the vendor shops inside Tivoli, is that they're privately owned and operated -which is part of the reason why they don't appear as some franchised merch stores. Each shop owner has their own themes and items they sell, and it isn't controlled by Tivoli itself (ofc they oversee what is being sold, but they don't actively enforce any specifics or Tivoli themed guideline like you'd see in most American theme parks where the park typically owns everything.
Thank you for the info, thats interesting!
Some quick fun facts:
The pirate ship is "just" a restaurant.
The wierd animal you saw at the begining, that you were wondering about is a seal. He's from some old danish comics called "Rasmus Klump", the same are the other animals standing next to him (The Bear, the Pinguin and the Pelican)
The Fun house you were in stands mostly unchanged from back when I was a kid back in the 70's.
The oldest still existing amusement partk in the world, Bakken which is nearly 450 years old, is just some 10 miles from Tivoli.
We almost went to Bakken but ran out of time! Also its interesting how Rasmus Klump never made its way to the US.
The funhouse is called "Skærsilden", wich mens purgatory. And it is still very much as it was 50 YEARS ago when I was a child
Great video! I'm glad you had a great time in our small but charming theme park. Love from Denmark.
Loved to see your day through Tivoli. I haven't been there in years, and it is nice to see it again, through new eye's. You comment on things, that we do not really think about, having been to Tivoli many times, through out the years, as a child, and again with my own children. I need to visit again Soon'ish. I bet i can borrow my grandchild, or just go with the husband.
You should come back for Christmas its a Hole different exsperience and its so magical and beautiful. Ps loved your video ❤🎡🎢🎠💚🎄🎅
5:00 Skæg (Beard) he is a seal, a seasoned sailer in the Rasmus Klump universe.
While Tivoli NOW is in the middle of Copenhagen, back when it was founded, it was the first thing to be allowed outside the city's moat and ramparts! Actually the lake in Tivoli is part of the old moat surrounding the medieval Copenhagen! If you look at a map of Copenhagen today, you can see where the moat and ramparts used to be: Start at Tivoli, and then follow a semi circle north and east all the way up to the star fortress of "Kastellet". on the way you will see several parks/ green spaces, which the leftovers of the old defences!

And kids run around by them selves unsuperviced , so we parents can relax :-)
December is cosy to.🧑🏻🎄
They did have "grouped" when i was there 20 years ago. Now a days i am fairly sure it count each person entering when they scan there "tivoli pas" or tickers to enter a ride. When max people have entered the next person simply cant get in since the bar locks.
Walt Disney actually visited Tivoli more than 30 times.
I think he is a Odder ( the one with the black hat and blue trousers )
1:57 my friend has performed on that stage
✌funny to see other cultur , me I love USA to , have a nice day
just found this video prost is the german saying of cheers, skål is the danish way of saying cheers
skål to you!
A wonder land - located in the very center of Copenhagen - the boats are not on a track - things are more loose - people are expected to take care of themselves and others - no it is not polite to be in the phones while eating or socializing
Why on earth the BAVARIAN music!?!?!
And “prost” is absolutely also Bavarian/German … ;-)
Try “SKÅL” next time 🍻
Velkommen til DANMARK 🇩🇰

By the way will there be more VLOGs about you visit to København (Copenhagen)?
4:55 all those characters are from a danish cartoon called "Rasmus Klump"
Yes, the houses are for the ducks
Yes it is houses for the ducks

Just a small correction, also to Danes. Walt Disney had allready decided to build a theme park. One that was better than his first. Which was just amusemnt park with some rides and not much more.
He had conceptualized his vision for this new park and the feeling one should get when visiting his park, or the 'vibe' as we would say today. And it's when he visits Tivoli that he for the first time experienced that feeling he imagined people should feel when visiting his future amusement park. And it's in this way Tivoli inspired Walt Disney. Tivoli showed him how to create a park that sort of gives you a warm fluffy hug.
Walt Disney had already planned out what later became disney land. Infact he visited Tivoli because he was on a research trip.
and a correction to you walt disney was in tivoli copenhagen before 1955 several times and got inspired
I love this video, im from denmark, i live in viborg☺️ can you try to live in Legoland, themepark hotel in Billund, Denmark for a weekend😍 that would be amazing to watch😁✨ i gave you a follow too and look forward to wisit usa one day in return🌹
Milk is a bit yellow. If you don't feed the cow clorine. Yum
Hahaha im danish she is like me with rides
ah yes, the typical danish weather .. gray :D i used to have a all-year pass in my youth just so i could pass thru the garden basicly. But also so i could draw from their cash maschines & get a (madatory?) softice on the way visiting the local big import comics stores. And probably spend a fortune on the arcade machines. in the weird dystopian future we live in currently where most banks is cashless & dont even have a cash machine, the park is still one of the best places to get cash if you need bills & coins. Smartphones i certainly still a plague in copenhagen. It isnt uncommon to see someone young trying to multitask starting into their phone, holding a starbucks coffee, wearing big music headphones while driving on a bicycle. How they manage to steer (and is still alive) is beyond me. Currently the tv is showing a goverment commercial warning parents about kids being targeted on smart phones.
Why do you call it Tivoli Gardens? It is just Tivoli.😉
Tivoli gardens is the english name.
Pity that you chosed the cheap food, some is actually quite bad, next time you should go to for example "Grøften" more expensive ? yes but it's worth it
Tre sommer as cook in Grøften, so i will say yes to that.
Danes doesn’t say (Tivoli Garden) it’s simply Tivoli, nothing more, nothing less
Go bakken insted much better ,the oldeste amusement park is in denmark aswell called Bakken
If any are planning to visit Tivoli im selling entrance ticket to tivoli. 50 % discount compared to normal price.
Too bad you didn't try Danish food like a Danish hotdog and smørrebrød.
We did the next day, just not on camera! Both were delicious.
Oh, you do not know Rasmus Klump? You need to learn, especially if you have children.
