    Good park for families with children. Liked 👌
    Good park for families with children. It will be interesting for adults and children. Beautiful well-groomed territory, there is a place to walk. I didn’t like that you had to stand in line for the attractions for a long time, about an hour to ride for 1.5 minutes. I was impressed by the laser show - incredibly beautiful, be sure to stay and watch it.

    Arena Futuroscope
    We actually went to the Australian Pink Floyd concert at the Arena. New Building, Toilet facilities not clearly marked, Went for a drink in the Bodega area, accident waiting to happen there as there is no barrier between the floor and the seated steps below, a lady was putting a stool on the back of the table to sit and we stopped her. Stairs in Block F and G VERY steep with no handrail. If I go again i will make sure i book for lower levels

    Several attractions not working … price is the same
    Very nice theme park. Lots of attractions for all ages. Avoid week-ends with bank holidays before or after the weekend if you don’t have great patience skills. Waiting time can be 120 to 140 minutes for most popular attractions (tornado chasers, Time Machine, extraordinary journey, etc.). Don’t expect to pay a lesser price even when attractions (objectif Mars, Mysteries of Kubic) are technically down.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The BEST family day out!
Jun 2023 • Family
I was slightly worried as some of the recent reviews were very negative but we wanted somewhere to go on our final day of our holiday and this did not disappoint. My sons are 9 and 11 and we all loved it! Went on a Saturday and the queues were fine. Most we queued was 50 for dance with robots. So many cool shows and rides and even just the park surroundings and sculptures were amazing! The end of night show wasn’t until 22:45 and I was worried we weren’t going to be able to fill our time but we were there from 10am until 23:30 and didn’t really stop! Good options are wide and really good. Le Quai does a fabulous set menu of non amusement park food! The children absolutely loved it! Highlights were Tornado Chasers, The Extraordinary Journey, the pedalo bikes, Upside down house…….so many! You would not get all this for €45 elsewhere!
Ignore the negative reviews and go!

Not what we expected, but its Average.
Feb 2023 • Family
While I find the theme and name of the park to be pretty cool. Honestly, the wait lines were ridiculous and the actual rides or attractions were not worth it. We tried everything in the two days here.

And only 3-4 rides actually stood out for us all.

- Project Mars (Long lines though)
- Dance With the Robots
- Illusio (Pretty cool show).
- La Vienne Dynamic

I can add “Artur” ride as somewhat cool too.

The rest were useless or just a big movie screen with a speed cut up parts of movies you cab watch at home like the “Yeti” one… waste of time.

You need to pay extra 6€ to try the total black sensation room
Thing.

If you want to do the Zero Gravity,
Its like 65€ for minutes of it. Not worth it.

Its actually better to come in the summer, it has water activities and slides etc for kids.

Honestly when I read futuroscope
I think, innovation, cool technology, experiments or science and mind things that make us go “wow”…. That effect was not here at all.

Outside of that, the night show is at 9pm

And all the rides close at 7pm
So if you are leaving the park to come back for the show, they need to stamp your wrist etc.

Hope this review is helpful to some, Im just trying to be honest. Our family wasnt as impressed as we wanted to be and were excited for this.

A good day out and great if dry. Queues, as always with a theme park, dampen the experience, especially when you queue for an hour for a two minute ride!!

Great rides - pity about the lack of translation
Aug 2022 • Family
We've been coming here regularly for years. The rides are constantly being updated, the park is kept clean, and my kids love it here.

However, on arrival we were told they no longer do the translators for the shows (despite the leaflet we were given saying these were still available). Instead there's allegedly a replacement system that relies on your phone and wi-fi - maybe we visited on a day where it had broken down, but it didn't work on either of the rides or the night time show.

So, if you're relying on the translators, it might be worth holding off until the replacement is (a) working, and (b) covers more rides.

Run away
Aug 2022 • Family
According to my experience:
-Value for money is nil. Very disappointed by the parc overall, not sure where the ‘future’ is, very similar to other amusement parks for most attractions, no real differentiator.
-Time spent in queue is insane and information not updated timely (ie. Informed while queuing that the queuing time had doubled!!)
-Number of Fast pass insufficient in proportion.
-Price of Gold fast pass outrageously high in proportion of basic ticket fee.

I would highly recommend Puy du fou couple of miles away which is perfectly managed and orchestrated.

A total rip-off
Aug 2022
We went with three kids (7 to 13 years) in August and the main activity was waiting. All attractions had absurd waiting times, the new ones more than 2 hours (!) and the lowest around 45 to 60 minutes. So if you want to spend a day and visit attractions you will mainly sit in lines. The management of the park is greedy and just sells more tickets than the place can take. Once in the attractions they are quite good, but not worth a wait of more than one hour. So make sure to visit on a calm day or be waiting.
The main activity of an attraction park is having fun and I did not see that much fun in those waiting lines. Its poor management.
