Ferrari Land is for the Cavallino’s fans?

What is Ferrari Land made of?

Ferrari Land is one of the parks that make up PortAventura World, which includes:

• 2 theme parks (PortAventura Park and Ferrari Land)
• 1 water park (PortAventura Caribe Aquatic Park)
• 5 four-star hotels
• 1 five-star hotel
• 1 golf club
• 1 holiday center for children with medical conditions

When is it open?

The PortAventura World season starts in March and runs until early January.
I recommend visiting the park’s official website to check opening times and download the park’s app, which will be very useful before and during your visit.

How much does Ferrari Land cost?

A single-day ticket to Ferrari Land is available on the official website starting from €19 per person in low season.
You can also purchase multi-day tickets (up to three days) including all three parks starting from €86 per person in low season.

What are the themed areas in Ferrari Land?

Ferrari Land doesn’t have distinct themed areas—the entire theme is Ferrari, Italy, and racing.
In total, the park features:

• 3 shows
• 6 shops
• 6 restaurants
• 13 attractions

Ferrari Land Shows

I can’t even describe the shows because on the day of my visit, none were scheduled. However, based on what I’ve found online, they appear to be three different street shows full of Italian stereotypes, so I’ll spare you the details.

Ferrari Land Shops

The shops are typical Ferrari stores where everything costs a fortune. The official site also lists the driving simulators under “shops”—the same ones you’ll find at the Ferrari Museum in Maranello.

Ferrari Land Restaurants

Here’s where things start to go wrong.
We had dinner at the Ristorante Cavallino, which is divided into two rooms.

The first room resembles a summer garden at sunset, complete with stars in the sky.

The second is packed with memorabilia from legendary champions, iconic photos, and parts from historic Ferrari cars.

So far, so good—except for the food.

We ordered a pizza. Sure, we’re in a Spanish park, but everything screams “Italy,” so what could go wrong?

Everything!

I’ll spare you the details, but it was the worst pizza I’ve ever had—if you can even call it pizza.

The Attractions at Ferrari Land

Now to the main point: the rides. After all, that’s why you go to a theme park. Is there anything good at Ferrari Land?
Yes, one good thing—just one.

Red Force. That’s it.

Before I describe Red Force (which isn’t without flaws), let me tell you about some attractions that truly left me puzzled.

Ferrari Land Gallery

I’ve personally visited both Ferrari museums in Italy, where you can admire beautiful cars and truly feel the passion for racing, the legend of Enzo Ferrari, and the glory of Ferrari’s achievements.
At Ferrari Land Gallery—and throughout the park—you get none of that.

The cars are well displayed, but there are no videos explaining why a specific car is iconic, what its racing or commercial triumphs were… It just feels like a “regular” car dealership.

Racing Legends – Flying Dreams

These are two simulators—one driving, one flying (similar to Soarin’-style flying theaters).
The issue with both is the very low video quality. We’re used to seeing way better on our smartphones.

In Racing Legends, you board a race car that zooms through the streets of Italy, transforming from the first Ferrari ever made to a futuristic concept car. Unfortunately, the vehicle’s movements are poorly synced, minimal, and the video quality is low.

Flying Dreams is your typical flight theater ride, like Soarin’ at EPCOT or Voletarium at Europa Park—but the similarity ends there.

Even here, the motion effects, scents, and video quality are so poor that the film—which is meant to thrill you—does the exact opposite. You just can’t wait for it to end.

In the pre-show, there’s even a supposed Enzo Ferrari lookalike who looks nothing like the real Enzo shown in the archive photos during the same pre-show!

Red Force

Riding Red Force is the only real reason why a visit to Ferrari Land makes sense.
Standing at 112 meters tall and accelerating from 0 to 180 km/h in 5 seconds, it’s the tallest and fastest coaster in Europe—but there’s a catch.

I rode this coaster four times within a few hours, as the park was quiet that day. I tried it in different positions—front row and back—but honestly, if it weren’t for pure curiosity, I would have stopped after the second ride.

Why? Because the entire thrill is in the launch. Just seconds after leaving the station, you’re already at the end. It’s all too fast, too repetitive, almost boring.

Sure, the speed is impressive, the height is incredible, and the acceleration is powerful—but coasters that rely solely on stats like these are destined to lose appeal.

One day, a new coaster will be built with better numbers, and just like that, Red Force will be outdated.

Minor Attractions

The rest of the park is filled with minor attractions mostly aimed at kids under the age of eight.
From a playground area to the small coaster Junior Red Force, and numerous flat rides—it often didn’t even feel like I was in a theme park.

Tips and Conclusion

I think it’s clear by now: Ferrari Land doesn’t capture the passion you feel at the Ferrari museums in Maranello.
It’s not even clear who the park is really for—you jump from Red Force to a playground.

There are sets inspired by Italy, but the food doesn’t do justice to Italy or to the Ferrari brand.

If you’re looking for that immersive Ferrari experience, you’ll be disappointed. But if you’re chasing the adrenaline rush of Red Force, this is the place.

My recommendation is to visit Ferrari Land together with PortAventura Park. If you buy a two-day ticket, they often include access to Ferrari Land for free. Even if it’s just for one spin on Red Force—it’s worth it.
