How can you entertain your teen on holiday at Parc Astérix?

Fancy spending time together at Parc Astérix? With something for all ages, immersive hotel stays and attractions for little and older Gauls, your teenagers will be on cloud nine. The perfect recipe for a successful holiday, with loads of laughs and thrills.

The Essentials

What can you do on vacation with a teenager? Go for the thrills. Record-breaking roller coasters like By Toutatis (51m/170ft, 110kph/70 mph), Thunder 2 Zeus with its hair-raising airtime moments, the inverted Osiris Convolvulis, Justforkix with its loops, and of course The “Hurrah” Trail: here, adrenaline reigns supreme, and the 100% Gallic atmosphere brings the whole family together.

Delicious food breaks that everyone will love. Burgers, fish and chips, all-you-can-eat buffets, Gallic specialties, or fast food between rides: a varied selection designed to satisfy teens’ (often very strong) tastes.

Fast-paced, immersive shows aimed at 12- to 18-year-olds—but not exclusively: spectacular dives at the Poseidon Theatre, stunts, and plot twists in “The Mona Lisa Heist”—enough to captivate teens and parents alike.

Smart vacation packages and services to make the most of your trip with your teen! Immersive hotels just a short walk from the park, early admission, a mobile app, and Filotomatix skip-the-queue access: everything is designed to minimise wait times and maximise the fun.

THE LAND OF GAULS AND GOOSEBUMPS!

It’s impossible to have a bad holiday with your teenager at Parc Astérix. As well as providing a warm and friendly atmosphere, we have a whole host of attractions to give them an exciting time. Such as?

 

  • By Toutatis!: experience a new high on this record-breaking roller coaster that’s 51m (170 ft) high and reaches a speed of 110kph (70mph)!

     

  • Thunder 2 Zeus: on this iconic Parc Astérix ride you’ll find a 90° banked hill, high-speed turns, fourteen airtimes to literally lift you out of your seat and a tunnel with special light effects. And the last cars face backwards to ride in reverse.
     
  • Osiris Convolvulis: not afraid of heights? Good, because on this inverted roller coaster, you’ll be launched at full speed 40m (130ft) above the ground along a looping and twisting track.
     
  • Justforkix: your bravest teens won’t want to miss this attraction. Head to the Viking area to climb to the equivalent of 12 storeys. The view of the park is outstanding, but you’ll barely have time to enjoy it when you’re propelled at 90kph (55mph) and hurled around the loops.
     
  • The Trojan Horse: hop on the Trojan Horse in the Ancient Greece area. What’s in store? You’ll fly through the air 12m (40ft) above the ground on a flying carpet for a good dose of adrenaline.
     
  • The “Hurrah” Trail: very popular with parents and teens during their holidays, this ride takes you on a Gallic-style bobsleigh ride at 60kph (37mph). The “Hurrah” Trail has three parts: the aurochs bend, the fossil spiral and the double mammoth’s tusk. It’s one of the highest bobsleigh roller coasters in the world and one of the fastest in Europe.

RESTAURANTS DESIGNED FOR THE FUSSIEST TEENS

 

Because we know that your holiday together should be relaxing, we have a wide range of restaurants. And because every teenager is different, we have something for everyone and all tastes!

  • The Lakeside Restaurant: this restaurant offers you a wide choice, including wild boar or beef burgers or kebabs and fish & chips. Dishes to delight the whole family.
  • The Circus restaurant: sit in the ring of a magnificent big top and enjoy an incredible buffet! A unique setting in the heart of the park to enjoy an all-you-can-eat buffet with a selection of starters, main courses (meat, fish, vegetables) and desserts. One thing is certain: teenagers and their parents will love it.
  • The Gaulish Inn: take the time to enjoy a well-deserved delicious meal in this Gallic hut. Salads, cold cuts, hot food: everything you need for a scrumptious feast, and you might even bump into Asterix and Obelix.
  • And if you just want a quick break between attractions, we've got that covered too. Parc Astérix’s menus include a choice of pizzas, burgers and hot and cold sandwiches.

SHOWS YOUR TEENS WILL LOVE

Not just for the youngsters, our shows at Parc Astérix are a big success with teens. Why’s that? Because of their rich variety and high quality.
 

  • The Olympian Diving Stars: in honour of Zeus four Roman and Greek athletes compete in a diving competition at the Poseidon Theatre, in the heart of Olympia. After the team events, eight athletes perform a series of spectacular feats.
  • The Mona Lisa Heist: on the misty docks of Le Havre, a gang of crooks are plotting to steal the Mona Lisa. Marcel, a house painter, is an unfortunate witness to the scene and will do everything he can to save the world’s most famous painting… The result is a breathtaking show with scores of stunts and tons of twists.

  • The Hanging City: if you want to travel through time and space, this is the hotel for you.

The spacious rooms are perfect to unwind, and there is a terrace or balcony to enjoy the outdoors.
  • The Lutecian Riverside: linking the two banks of the Seine, a true testament to the Roman way of life, this four-star hotel looks forward to welcoming you for an extraordinary holiday. Did you know? The Lutecian Riverside Hotel won the TripAdvisor Traveller’s Choice Award in 2022.

PARK SERVICES THAT YOUR TEENS WILL LIKE

 

The Parc Astérix mobile app lets them plan their visit and decide which attractions they prefer before arriving at the park. And because your teens don’t like to wait, they can check the waiting times for each attraction, avoid the queues and book meals for the whole family.

As for the Filotomatix fast pass, this is an essential tool to maximise your holiday fun. Depending on which fast pass you choose, you get to skip the queue once or as many times as you want at certain attractions. For example: If you purchase Filotomatix Unlimited with your entry ticket, you can skip the queues as many times as you want for ten attractions.
