Some added points to the video: The VR-headsets are removed on Atmosfear from this year, so operations will probably be quicker. There is also really hard to get qualified chefs in Sweden, so not only the park but a lot of restaurants have problems to get good chefs which in turn leads to good food. Liseberg opened their own cooking school last year though where around 20 people interested in cooking started an education in the park to learn how to cook. They got an full-time employment right away and after one year as trainee's and another year where they get a specialization they will continue to work in the restaurants in the park. So with more educated chefs the park in turn can make more from scratch which most likely will taste better. I think it's a really cool way to fix the problem with few qualified chefs. Instead of waiting for someone else to fix the shortage, the park takes the lead to fix it themselves, and on top of that gives some passionate home cooks a full time employment from the first day of study🙌

Another thing that is great about Liseberg is that it is owned by Gothenburg municipality(hope i got that word right). This might seem like nothing special, but since it is basically the towns property it means that it has much more safety regulations than other themeparks (such as Gröna Lund, which is a standalone themepark) because the government would not want to be known for having an unsafe themepark (obviously). Remember, the chances of you dying on a safely built rollercoaster are 1 in around 750million, so please stop being afraid of rollercoasters!"!!!!!! (also great video btw)

Flumride was indeed slated for removal after the 2023 season. The ride's 50th birthday. They stated the concrete foundations are so worn that it's not really possible to renovate them any more. As Flumride is the most popular ride in the park, and has been for 50 years, they continued the statement with a pledge to re-build the ride. A few months later however they gave out a new statement saying they will wait a few years before removing Flumride.

If your name is Lise Berg, you get a lifetime free access to Liseberg. Liseberg got its name due to a naming contest, where a secretary named Anna Grötting was the one that came up with the winning name suggestion. There were names that failed to get chosen, such as Lustgården (The Garden of Lust), Gladevi, Penningödsla and Nöjesfältet (The Amusement Park). To coincide with Liseberg's 100th anniversary, Liseberg released a book called Liseberg The Heart of Gothenburg Since 1923 (released in English and Swedish). Similar to the book Gothenburg 400: An Illustrated History.

Liseberg SLAPS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I love these Scandinavian parks. Liseberg, Grona Lund and Tivoli Gardens to name a few are immaculate, well maintained and run plus they have so many unusual attractions. I much prefer parks that are immaculately clean, well run with unapologetically un-themed rides than many other 'so called' theme parks with poor, tatty theming applied to really quite mediocre over hyped rides.

Just want to clarify the pronounciation: The "g" in "Liseberg" is *not* silent in Swedish, rather its placement in the word changes it so it sounds like "j". The "e" in "berg" is also made to sound like the letter "'ä" (or æ), so the more accurate pronunciation would be "Li-se-bär-j". Valkyria's paid lockers is definitely a shocker since it wasn't always like this. Up until at least 2021, it was free. It's not super expensive (5 SEK for two hours), but it's still annoying that it's basically an upcharge attraction if you have a bag with you. FlumeRide isn't going anywhere, at least for the moment. I believe this stems from confusion over wether Luna (or "Project Luna" as it was called before it was announced) was going to be a coaster or a replacement for FlumeRide, when it ended up being the former. The ride is showing its age, though.

@sabedi2129

2 ай бұрын

The reason why they put a charge on the lockers at Valkyria is because before they were often occupied a long time by people not riding the ride, so there was not enough lockers available. There are also other lockers in the park but they cost around 20 kronor I think so obviously a lot of people use the Valkyria lockers to save some money. And for the other part, flumeride will be removed in the coming years as it's too expensive to renovate at this point. They will though build a new water attraction at the same place but it will be a bit different and more modern.

One CROWN, multiple COWNS. 1 krona, multiple KRONOR

Having grown up only about an hour away from Liseberg (and still living in the same town, though with a 5,5 year break in the mid 2000's to early 2010's) Liseberg was a staple of my childhood, teenage and young adulthood. I have to say though that Liseberg was at its hayday in the 90's and early 2000's (and probably before, but with me being born in 1985, I can only speak for the years I experienced), I felt the park went meh in the 2010's when some very classic favorites were removed, and the park became too focused on very wild rides with fewer more inclusive rides, there's too much spinning around now and coasters with a lot of tossing around. As someone now living with a physical disability and being an ambulatory wheelchair user, I'll also have to mention that there are a fair bit of issues with accessibility in the park, much due to the hilly terrain. I know they can't change the terrain in the park, but I do wish they'd offer the option to rent or borrow an electric wheelchair (like an Eloflex) so disabled guests can get around the park a bit more independently, and also sort some better transportation up from ground level to the ferris wheels and tower. Flumride is one of the best rides in the entire park, even with it being one of if not the oldest ride still in operation. Lisebergbanan and Balder are/were other favorites of mine. Some of my old favorites are long gone... Also, when I grew up, the park would be open until midnight at least in the weekends in summer, and by closing time, there were fireworks to end the day. Between the increased prices, longer queues, shorter opening hours, fewer enjoyable rides (I don't do spinning or coasters with a lot of twists on it, both because I don't like it and because I shouldn't) I just don't go any longer. Last time I went was when they closed the summer season in 2013 which was their 90th anniversary season, and then I went for thr Christmas market the same year and that was it, that Christmas visit was just not good (while I had been having a great time earlier years)

There are multiple investigations going on to see what happened at Oceana and it's not clear as of now. The thesis is that it happened during some sort of workstep though.

I'm not Swedish nor do I know anything about the Swedish language. That said, I don't think the explanation you provided for the pronunciation brings much clarity to English speakers. The letter before the silent G is an R, not a Y or E or I. So, to an English speaker, saying that the G is silent would lead most to pronounce the word as "Lee-see-bear." Saying that the G is silent doesn't explain why there is an "eee" sound added after the R. I wouldn't expect you to provide a detailed explanation of how the Swedish language works, but the explanation that you did provide also doesn't really make a lot of sense. In other words, with this explanation, the back half of the elephant is still in the room.

The cause of the fire was probably welding work on the slides outside, but the accident investigation isn't completed yet. The person that died was not involved in the welding work, it was a project manager who was inside the slide tower at the time. The damage cost is around 450 million SEK, but that is the responsibility of the contractor since Oceana was still under construction. They will have to reimburse Liseberg through their insurance, but with these kinds of money that takes a while before it's done.

Think usually the G is more like J, the S two S. And the E an Ä. But let's not go completely overboard.. ;) "Lisseberj" If you are really enthusiastic about it, just use as many J in the end as needed to suitably emphasising it.

@@arkdon477 Don't think that can be argued in general really, for either swedish or natives to some sort of english. It would of course also be quite different from this example since it is for the end intonation of LiseberG. Bay or Bag, Bug or Buy. Same same? My point was it seemed completely counter productive for any english speakers to try and pronounce G as Y to get a more swedish sounding G.

@@AltCutTV I'd argue that trying to say Lisebery(ak), would be more comprehensible than saying Liseber, if the claim is that the G is silent. Of course, saying Liseberg with a hard G, every Swedish person will understand. It's an age-old discussion really, since English-speakers will always try to say Göteborg, instead of Gothenburg. Same dilemma. Do you correct them and risk an awkward situation, or do you let them go on in life pronouncing it worse than Gollum.

Sorry but the G is not silent. It is pronounced as a J, Liseberj not Liseberry. I am Swedish.

Liseberry (( The Way It's Named In Swedish , And How You Name It )) Just Sounds Odd Given Most Call It , And What It's Mostly Known As " Liseberg " I Don't Know If It's Actually Spelled " Liseberry " , Because I Hear " Berry " Mostly In It Whenever You Say It. Great Review By The Way! :)

Berg = Mountain. Simply the central peak of the park. Berry or berries is spelled "bär" and usually pronounced as the "ber" part of "berg" despite the spelling difference. (Yes, swedish is as confusing and partially illogical as most other languages unfortunately) ;) The "Lise" part would be as explained, the peak dedicated to the woman in question.

Your pronunciation is a bit (about a Swedish mile) off. I would think saying "Lee-se-bear-j" should approximate the correct pronunciation for English speakers.

​@@deedeeknutsson5205They haven't yet officially committed to rebuilding , but their "ambition" is to do so. I think it's very likely to happen. Since they've spent a lot of money on it already, and it probably will take a long time for the contractor to reimburse Liseberg for it through their insurance, they probably can't financially promise that they can do it.

Ah ok, maybe I was misinformed.

I will defend this American against everyone complaining about his pronunciation. While yes it is true that the G is not silent, how could someone not a speaker of Swedish know this? The J in Swedish is a unique sound and does not equal J in English, nor does it equal Y in English. It is completely its own sound that just happens to use the same letter J as an English J, yet are not the same sound and all because the English J sound does not exist in Swedish. And on a second note, the pitch accent in words does not exist in English either. It is not natural for him to speak that way. Let’s give this man some massive credit for actually taking the time to listen, and trying his best to mimic sounds he has never had to make in his entire life. 👏

No that is not how to say it, Berg means mountain in swedish. An english take on it would be Leasyberg, more correct then Leasyberry, which sounds a bit like lingonberry. But if you want to say it correct then say Liesebaerj. G can sound both as g and j, it’s like the word agent in english. You say ajent though, in swedish you say agent as in aGent.
