Fantasy Island is an amusement park in Ingoldmells, Lincolnshire, England, UK. The attraction also contains an outdoor market, caravan sites, and holiday accommodation. At the centre of the attraction is a pyramid which contains the indoor Jellikins Coaster among other rides, arcades, and restaurants. The site is free to enter, with rides operating on a pay-as-you-go or wristband basis.

History

Fantasy Island opened in 1995 on the site of a former car park following three years of construction.

The park went into administration in August 2014 and was acquired by Mellors Group in 2016. Following the 2016 season the pyramid was refurbished and its windows covered over, blocking natural light from the interior. A mini-golf course and bowling alley were also added.

On 18 March 2020, the owners of Fantasy Island announced that the opening of the amusement park for 2020 was being postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
