Chile's most popular theme park, centrally located in Parque O'Higgins with direct metro access, beloved by generations of Chileans since 1978.
Chile's National Theme Park
Fantasilandia is Chile's largest and most beloved theme park, located in Parque O'Higgins in the heart of Santiago. Founded in 1978, the park is uniquely situated inside one of Santiago's main urban parks, making it extraordinarily accessible β it is reachable by metro directly from the city centre.
Urban Heart of Chilean Entertainment
Fantasilandia's location within Parque O'Higgins, metres from a metro station in central Santiago, makes it one of the most conveniently positioned major theme parks in South America. For millions of Santiaguinos, a visit to Fantasilandia is simply a metro ride away, and the park has served as the default family entertainment destination for the Chilean capital for over four decades.
Attractions & Rides
The park has invested consistently in major new rides and now offers a comprehensive range of attractions:
- Coaster Mayan β the park's flagship wooden roller coaster, one of only a handful in South America
- Boomerang β intense steel inverting coaster
- Kamikaze β suspended looping thrill ride
- Tsunami β dramatic water ride
- Free Fall β towering drop experience
- Fantasilandia Express β miniature train around the park for families

Cultural Significance
Fantasilandia holds a place in Chilean popular culture comparable to Disneyland in the United States β not in scale, but in the sense of being the shared childhood amusement experience of an entire nation. Generations of Chileans have celebrated birthdays, school trips, and family outings at the park.
Special Events
The park is particularly famous for its Halloween events and Christmas in the Park season, which are among the most popular seasonal events in Santiago each year.
