It has the world's tallest watercoaster, the "Divertical" with a height of 60 m. It also has the only spike dueling coaster in the world: Desmo Race.

The park opened its doors on 4 July 1992, located next to the pine grove in Classe, on the Adriatica state road, among the first shareholders there was Silvio Berlusconi.

Among its opening-day attractions was Sierra Tonante, a wooden roller coaster, and Rio Bravo, a water itinerary among the rapids aboard special rafts where still today it is possible to have a great time.

But in 1996 the park was in danger of bankruptcy, so the next year it's sold to the Loeffelhardt-Casoli group (joint venture between the company that owns Phantasialand and the Italian Casoli)

In 1997, the 60-metre-tall Torri Gemelle (today Oil Towers) and the Scuola di Polizia stunt show were added. New scenery and theming depicting exotic and fantastic places was also added. Most prominently, the entrance plaza rethemed and renamed Pirate Bay. The restaurants had a similar re-theming (like the "Locanda del Faro").

In 1998, Pakal (today Gold Digger), a wild mouse roller coaster, was added.

In 1999, the 92-metre-tall Eurowheel, the tallest Ferris wheel in Europe at the time, Niagara (today El Dorado Falls), and the Mirabilandia Express opened.

In 2000 has opened Katun, the longest inverted roller coaster in Europe, themed with the city of Sian Ka'an that is a big Mayan zone around the coaster.

In 2003, Mirabilandia Beach (today Mirabeach), a water park, was added. It was expanded in 2004.

Following the success, in 2006, the Spanish company Parques Reunidos, one of the leading companies in the amusement parks sector, became interested in the park and bought it.

In the following years, Leprotto Express, Raratonga, and Reset, the first interactive dark ride in Italy, were added. Around Reset there is a zone which represents a post-apocalyptic New York.

In 2009, iSpeed, a launched roller coaster, opened, replacing Sierra Tonante (which had closed in 2007) and becoming the tallest and fastest roller coaster in Italy, featuring an acceleration of 0 to 100 km/h in 2.2 seconds.

In 2011 Master Thai, the first dueling roller coaster in Italy was added.

In 2012, Divertical, the tallest water coaster in the world was inaugurated.

In 2014, the children's area Dinoland opened with attractions including Reptilium, Raptotana, Rexplorer, Bicisauro, Brontocars, and Monosauro.

In 2015 the stunt show got a partnership with Hot Wheels and a 18 metres in height mobile loop, the tallest loop in the world made by a car.

In 2016, the Far West Valley area opened its doors, featuring the largest Horror House in Europe, Legends of Dead Town.

In 2018, Mirabeach completed a 20,000-square-metre expansion.
