Futuroscope: Organizing a Science and Technology Field Trip

Interactive Learning Through Images and Technology

Including Futuroscope in your school trip adds a technological and scientific dimension to your visit. This Poitiers-based park stands out for its accessible approach to the major challenges of tomorrow: space, robotics, renewable energy, and digital imaging. It’s a perfect, fun complement to physics-chemistry, technology, and media literacy curricula.

A format tailored to school groups

The park is designed to provide the best possible experience for school groups. Many attractions are designed to be experienced as a group. Teachers can download educational resources in advance to prepare for the visit and turn the immersive experience into a real learning opportunity once back in the classroom—particularly regarding how optical illusions or flight simulators work.

A day trip from the Touraine region

From the Domaine des Acacias in Indre-et-Loire, Futuroscope is less than an hour and a half away via the A10 highway. This relative proximity allows you to devote an entire day to science, while using our center as a fixed base camp for the rest of your educational trip focused on the Loire Valley castles, thus avoiding the need to change accommodations.
