The first truly "theme" park was probably Disneyland, in 1955. It was an unusual enough concept that Disney had a somewhat difficult time getting financing for it. Permanent amusement parks had existed for longer... Coney Island, for example, had been around since the 19th century... but they really didn't have a unifying "theme."
