France - Futuroscope

Band

• Spectacular theme park
• Educationally stimulating
• Receptive audiences

This amazing and thrilling park is just a few kilometres from the city of Poitiers in France’s region of Poitou- Charentes. France’s most innovative learning experience, contained within arresting modern architecture, Futuroscope brings together the very latest advances in giant screen film, a massive 3D cinema and virtual reality simulator. There are many films to see in incredible colour and definition, using the most up to date techniques. You can travel through space courtesy of the Hubble telescope and explore the treasures of the Nile through film. One of the latest attractions is the ‘Dances with Robots’ where a giant arm takes its riders 7 metres in the air for an airborne waltz!

Concerts

From May to August, the events organisers at Futuroscope erect a stage in the Park, opposite the main lake and adjacent to the restaurants. The stage is available for concert performances during the weekends only in May and June and mid-week during July and August. Concerts take place during the afternoon and are very well-received by the visitors to the Park. Please note that groups need to provide a recording before being accepted to play at Futuroscope.

Accommodation

We place our groups in the 1 star Hotel du Futuroscope which lies right on the Park’s doorstep. The hotel is large, with over 1,000 beds, and provides good accommodation for young groups. All bedrooms, which are 4-bedded, have private bathroom and TV. Breakfast is taken in the hotel itself, while evening meals are taken either at the hotel or in the Park.
