It hosts 11 attractions for the whole family: Ferrari Experience which includes Racing Legends and Flying Dreams; the park’s two immersive attractions. Europe’s tallest and fastest rollercoaster Red Force and the Thrill Towers crown the skyline of PortAventura and Ferrari Land also features attractions where visitors can put their driving skills to the test such as the semi-professional simulators of Pole Position Challenge, the Maranello Grand Race racing circuit and Pit Stop Record – an activity that challenges budding mechanics to change all four wheels of a full-scale Formula 1 car.



To complete the experience, visitors can enjoy Ristorante Cavallino, a traditional Italian trattoria inspired by the restaurant in Maranello (Ferrari headquarters); a themed Fast Food restaurant, Pit Lane; and delicious Italian ice cream parlours like Ice Cream Box. What is more, the Ferrari Land Store stocks a selection of the most exclusive official branded merchandise.
