Bon-Bon Land is an amusement park in Holme-Olstrup, Sjælland, Denmark.

History

The park was established by Michael Spangsberg, who owned a confectionary factory. Spangsberg had hoped to offer tours of his factory however this proved impractical due to hygiene laws. Instead, BonBon-Land was created with a small confectionary workshop. It opened on 16 April 1992. The park's first amusement ride, Hundeprutterutchebane, opened the following year.[1]

Sweets were manufactured onsite until 2001, when the manufacturing business was sold to Toms International.[1]

In 2003, Vild-Svinet was installed. It is the prototype Euro-Fighter installation from Gerstlauer, and the first roller coaster in the world with a beyond-vertical drop.

In 2007, Spangsberg sold BonBon-Land to Parques Reunidos.[2]
