Go exploring in Vulcania, in the heart of the Auvergne volcanoes, and share experiences that are as instructive as they are fun and spectacular. A unique park in Europe on the theme of volcanoes, natural phenomena and the Earth in Space!

Go exploring in Vulcania, a unique park in Europe in the heart of the Auvergne volcanoes just 20 minutes from Clermont-Ferrand, and experience an immersive adventure discovering volcanoes, natural phenomena and the Earth in Space.

Fly over Auvergne with Premier Envol, brave the volcanic eruptions of the Réveil des Géants, explore the volcanoes of the world with Planète Dévoilée, explore the underwater depths with Abyss Explorer, join a team of seismologists with the Namazu roller coaster, confront the elements in Angry Earth or travel through Space in the largest Planetarium in France...

Special events are also planned for children, such as the Children's City, the Mineral River, the Dragon Forest or the show of Volcanic Tales and Legends. In the planetarium, children will also experience a fabulous adventure with the film Noisettes.

Finally, don't miss the activities narrated by our scientific presenters (Machine Terre, Earthquakes or the Chaîne des Puys narrated by the presenters), the workshops (2 minutes to save Clermont, in the shoes of a volcanologist, Funny experiences, etc.) as well as the shows at different times of the year.
