General info: 

The oldest amusement park in Sweden is Gröna Lund. Located in the close to the city center, on the island Djurgarden, this park has been a popular attraction since the day it opened, in the late 19th century. A day spent at Gröna Lund is a memorable one, whether you dine in one of the restaurants, enjoy a pentathlon, a live concert or one of the 30 exciting rides.

However, Grona Lund doesn’t serve strictly as an amusement park – it also hosts some sport venues and concerts. The citizens of Stockholm still remember the concert Bob Marley held during the eighties, which holds the record for the most number of visitors.
