#OnThisDay 4 October 1935 Luna Park opened in Sydney for the first time. The amusement park was constructed at Milsons Point, on traditional land of the Cammeraygal people, at the site formerly used as workshops for the construction of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The Park was built over three months and the rides came from Luna Park Glenelg in Adelaide.
Luna Park operated for a nine-month season every year until 1972 when it opened all year round.
