Be a part of the Griffith Park Merry-Go-Round
The Griffith Park Merry-Go-Round has been a joyous part of Angelenos’ lives for decades, offering treasured memories for every rider who has ever hopped onboard for a magical spin. A new chapter is currently being written for future generations to enjoy this charming attraction for years to come. The City of Los Angeles now owns the historic carousel, but the mechanical restoration needs are extensive.
