Immersive cultural and historical themed visitor attraction operator Puy du Fou is on the lookout for its first UK site.
The company has instructed Savills to locate a 300 to 400-acre site in Central England, preferably within a 40-mile radius of Oxford.
Puy du Fou was founded in western France in 1977 and is France’s second most visited theme park.
Ian Simpson, head of the leisure and trade-related team at Savills, said: “Puy du Fou is an incredibly popular interactive visitor attraction that centres its shows on a country’s unique history. The operator has been attracted to the UK because of the richness and depth of British history and culture and we are delighted to support the group in its search.
“In recent years we have seen the popularity of experiential and immersive visitor attractions grow in the UK and with the UK’s extensive history, this will add a unique experience for the British public.”
Puy du Fou opened a site in Toledo, Spain, in 2021 and is seeking to develop a number of sites across the world.
