About Children's Fairyland

Children's Fairyland features a 10-acre lakeside park on the shores of Lake Merritt in Oakland designed for families with young children. Visitors explore magical storybook playsets, ride the Jolly Trolly train installed in 1954, spin on the Wonder-Go-Round carousel with Alice in Wonderland characters, and board Anansi's Magic Web mini Ferris wheel. The park offers puppet shows, live performances, and hands-on activities alongside friendly animals. A Magic Key unlocks 20 talking storybook boxes that narrate tales in English or Spanish throughout the grounds. The park suits children ages 0 to 8 and their families seeking outdoor imaginative play. Children's Fairyland charges admission with prices published online; tickets sell through the venue's website. Oakland residents receive $5 admission for children and $10 for adults with valid ID on Fridays. Active military, veterans, and spouses save $3 per ticket with valid military ID. Visitors with EBT, SNAP, CalFresh, BIC, or WIC cards enter at $5 per person. Details on all discounts appear at fairyland.org.
