Pacific Park celebrated its official 30th Anniversary on May 26, marking three decades since amusement returned to the Santa Monica Pier with the opening of the Park in 1996 — the first amusement park on the Pier since the 1930s. The milestone celebration included a special birthday-themed Pacific Wheel light show, the grand opening of Sweet Rose Creamery, community celebrations and the release of “Sp30tlights: 30 Years of Pacific Park,” a multi-day series highlighting defining moments from the Park’s history.
Over the past 30 years, Pacific Park has become one of Southern California’s most recognized seaside attractions, featuring 12 rides, 14 midway games, Snackville oceanfront dining and beachside retail — all anchored by the Pacific Wheel, the world’s only solar-powered Ferris wheel.
