Posted April 9, 201411 yr comment_180590 It seems Paramount isn't the only new park heading our way http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/11121960.__100m_historical_leisure_park_with_stunning_nightshow_planned_for_Auckland_Castle/?ref=var_0 OK, it's not in the same sort of scale, but it does sound interesting. Especially the show aspect. Anyone been to Puy du Fou?
April 9, 201411 yr comment_180592 I was recently shown a video of Puy du Fou, it's not a ride based park (so people get that idea out now), but it looks so ridiculously over the top and amazing... Nice to see us get one, shame it's in Durham really...
April 9, 201411 yr comment_180614 Certainly sounds very interesting and I like the idea of a big spectacular show aspect of the park, as it's something most/all our parks seem to lack. Will be interesting to see how this develops.
April 9, 201411 yr comment_180619 This is interesting! I've been to Puy du Fou a couple of times and it really is outstanding. The day park makes a real change from a 'traditional' theme park and was really enjoyable. The night show, however, was simply spectacular! Cannot recommend it highly enough! I'm glad this is being run as a not-for-profit venture, I just hope they can get the funding they need.
