The Puy du Fou Cinéscénie in 2025
Every summer, the Vendée region lights up to the rhythm of La Cinéscénie du Puy du Fou, a unique nighttime spectacle.
From June 7 to September 13, 2025, immerse yourself in a true historical epic through the destiny of the Maupillier family, from the Middle Ages to the Second World War, including the Renaissance and the War in the Vendée.
Step back in time and walk in the footsteps of these characters in an extraordinary production.
Since its creation in 1978 by Philippe de Villiers, La Cinéscénie has continued to fascinate with its spectacular staging.
Initially supported by 600 volunteers, the show now mobilizes more than 4,200 Puy du Fou residents who passionately bring these pages of history to life every evening.
Attending La Cinéscénie is a true journey through time.
For 1.5 hours, you'll be immersed in a scenography where reality and legends brilliantly intertwine.
Period costumes, epic battles, and poignant stories intersect in a vivid tableau that should delight children and adults alike.
In recent years, the show has been modernized thanks to cutting-edge technologies such as autonomous drones, 3D video mapping projections, and grandiose pyrotechnic effects.
This outdoor nighttime show takes place in an exceptional setting at nightfall.
From a vast panoramic grandstand, you can watch the show and travel through seven centuries of history.
