Futuroscope

Families with children will enjoy a day or afternoon spent at Futuroscope, a unique amusement park focused on science and technology. This innovative park features wild rides, entertaining shows, and seven themed restaurants. Kids can relive history with a time travel game, hop on a special train ride, discover the wonders of the universe with Cosmic Collisions, follow the story of the Petit Prince, and dance with robots while a DJ mixes music. There is also a cinema in a theater shaped like a Giant Tomato. The Parc du Futuroscope lies about 12 kilometers away from Poitiers. The amusement park has an affordable hotel on site.
