The Futuroscope experience is based on discovery, amazement and shared excitement. Here, visitors can escape, enjoy the fun with all the family and see the world in a new light. It takes us back to the spirit of our childhood and with it creates a new sense of wonder.
The robot theme for 2006 is a physical representation of both the promise of intelligent entertainment where art and technology fuse, and an encounter with a future drawn from our visitors’ imaginations.
Three major new attractions give robots star billing at Futuroscope this year: Le Zoo des Robots (The Robot Zoo), a fun, interactive attraction for all the family to enjoy, La Forêt des Rêves (The Forest of Dreams), the spectacular new evening show, and from April, Danse avec les Robots (Dances with Robots), a staggering ride that combines state-of-the-art technology and artistic skill.
NEW FOR 2006
Dances with Robots:
Enter the vast ballroom, climb on board one of the 10 moving robot arms and prepare to be whisked off on a wild waltz 7 metres up in the air! If you prefer, you can choose to be a spectator and look on amazed at this new form of dance designed and performed by Kamel Ouali exclusively for Futuroscope.
Adventures in Animation 3D:
Slim is a virtual actor created before your very eyes before being pitched inside a boxing ring where he is the unwitting star of a hilarious bout against a muscle-bound bruiser.
Others include:
Star of the Future
Take the starring role! Take a look inside a major film studio, feel the buzz of the film set and discover the secrets behind the special effects. Turn up to the audition and become an actor.
Young Black Stallion:
Neera has been separated from her family and now finds herself alone in the North African desert. Lost in an unfriendly environment, thirsty and desperate, she meets a young black stallion who rides faster than the wind, and whom she calls Shetan. Together they will dig deep into their extraordinary friendship and find the will to survive.
Journey into the Dark:
Experience a "different" world and what daily life is like for the visually impaired as you are led by a blind guide through a series of specially arranged zones prepared using objects, smells and sounds. Could it be that the way to achieve a better understanding of others and to build tomorrow's world is through eyes that do not see?
Participants will be asked to make a donation of 4 € per adult, 3 € for children aged 5 to 16 and 3 € for groups of 8 or more. Part of the profits will be used to purchase colour sensors for the visually impaired.
Peril on Akryls:
Thrill to these 100% sci-fi sensations. The city of Akryls is under threat from strange parasitic creatures. Jump in your cleaner-robot and save the city in this dynamic cinema ride!
New Games include:
Futuroscope Digital City:
Mad about big-screen gaming! Whether you're a loner or a team player, will you rise to the challenge of the new generation of interactive games?
Children's World:
A play area covering 2 hectares where everyone can relax in the open air! Children and adults alike can stretch their legs and their minds between attractions with this wide range of amusing and fascinating games that are full of surprises. Children's World offers various interactive recreations.
Cyber Avenue:
A gallery just for arcade games and multimedia fun. Sixty arcade games (extreme skiing, Formula 1, Soccer, Jet Ski...) make your wildest dreams come to life - with extreme sensations guaranteed!
