The name Figaro is a tribute to two of the key figures in the creation of Tivoli, and from the restaurant there is a view of statues of both Georg Carsten and Hans Christian Lumbye.

​

Figaro is located in one of the newer buildings in the old garden. The building is from around 1960, and it was designed by Simon Henningsen - son of the somewhat better-known architect Poul Henningsen, who was especially known for the PH Lamp.

However, Simon Henningsen was also really good at designing lamps, which he, among other things, proven with the Tivoli Lamp, which is designed to reflect both light and Tivoli's fireworks at the same time.

​

The Tivoli Lamp was originally designed for one of Tivoli's former restaurants, Divan 2, but the lamp has of course also found a place in several places in Figaro.

​

Figaro became part of Tivoli's history when the doors opened for the first time in the spring of 2021
