Reviews of Currys Fun Park
Cyprian Wałantowicz
Jet ride is class gets the adrenaline going didn’t go on other rides but they look unreal too Shoutout to the kid that let us on to the jet ride for a free, what a G✌️(give him a raise) fun park needs bit of a general upgrade, rides are like from early 2000s (but it gives nice nostalgia/vaporwave vibes)
Phil Hexley
For young kids, the rides are not all well maintained. The fun house, most of the things where the floor should move for example, they simply don't work, one of the routes had tape to stop you going that way. A few rides like the rollercoaster and swings are decent but for the price, it's poor. Such a shame.
Suweidu Abdulai
Lovely place for children to play and enjoy themselves, and you have the opportunity to go swimming at ladies beach next to the fun park. It's so handy.
Emily Kapllani
Really lovely little theme park along the seafront of Salthill. Visited with two adult friends and their three young children. The ride tickets are €1.00 per ticket, however is purchasing 40, you get 15 free. We did this due the size of our group. We did find the tickets were used very quickly as most rides were three tickets per person, and some even wanted four. There is a decent variety of both...

Each ride is about €4. It has the usuals you'd expect. 2 or 3 thrill rides and the rest for kids. All the people working there were in good spirits especially the Bulgarian Ferris Wheel operator and the Twister Lady. No alcohol, €5 card minimum.
