Puy du Fou is exporting its unique theme park concept to Spain and opening a new 30-hectare world of history and nature.

From March 27, 2021, visitors to the new Puy du Fou España on the outskirts of Toledo, which is less than an hour from Madrid, will be able to relive some of Spain’s best-known legends and greatest moments in history.

The current night-time show, El Sueño de Toledo, has already attracted more than 120,000 spectators over the last two years.

Thanks to more than 40 years of experience, Puy du Fou has become a global reference point in the creative world, resulting in numerous international awards.

The four daytime shows at Puy du Fou España will feature dazzling special effects, stunts and extraordinary sets. Each show lasts around 30 minutes and will be performed several times a day. The following shows will open their doors on March 27, 2021:

• El Ultimo Cantar (The Last Song): a grand scale 360˚ show, set in the 11th century, that follows the incredible exploits and epic tale of ‘El Cid’, Don Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar. The deeds of the Castilian knight inspired future generations with his extraordinary feats, military prowess and commitment to honour.
• A Pluma y Espada (By Feather and Sword): Enjoy a light-hearted swash-buckling adventure in which Spain’s Golden Age poet, Lope de Vega, discovers that all is not as it seems.
• Cetrería de Reyes (Falconry of the Kings): Step back in time to the year 939 and the Caliphate of Cordoba, and gaze skywards when a truce between the Count Fernán González of Castile and the Caliph takes the unusual form of a duel of falcons and an aerial dance performed by hundreds of birds of prey.
• Allende la Mar Océana (On the Other Side of the Ocean): The year is 1492 and it is time to embark on an epic journey with Christopher Columbus. Puy du Fou España takes you on an immersive experience, starting in the port of Palos, before boarding the ship and setting sail through an undiscovered sea towards the west.

In between shows, take a leisurely stroll through the four period villages, watch craftsmen at work and browse artisan workshops:

• El Arrabal: A medieval market in front of the Puerta del Sol where stallholders prepare traditional Spanish food in surroundings inspired by the 13th century.
• La Puebla Real: Wander through the narrow streets of this 13th century stone-walled village and watch embroiderers and potters at work.
• La Venta de Isidro: Learn about rural life in the Middle Ages in Spain and taste the fresh cheese and vegetables resulting from the cultivation of the land.
• El Askar Andalusí: Breathe in the scent of honey and almonds and experience daily life in the colourful surroundings of an authentic Moorish camp.

Restaurants and food outlets will provide an authentic local experience. Choose from a selection of 10 food outlets including restaurants with set menus and tapas bars serving typical ‘empanadas’ and ‘patatas bravas’.
