Mirabilandia was an amusement park in north-eastern Brazil. It was located in Olinda, and occupied 57,000 m2 of land. Mirabilandia operated three traveling parks in Brazil, called Universal Park, Fiesta Park and American Park.

In 2023, a teacher was seriously injured after being thrown from a swing ride at Mirabilandia.[1] She later died in hospital.[2] The park ceased operations on February 2, 2025.[3] The park was growing out their location and they had plans to relocate to a new location in Paulista, which would also include the addition of a relocated Intamin 8-Inversion roller coaster from Terra Encantada and a relocated Vekoma Giant Inverted Boomerang from Six Flags Over Georgia. However, after the incident, the plans were ceased and the rides were put up for sale.
