The venue
A park dedicated to astronomy and space exploration, with a planetarium and a life-size Ariane 5 rocket. Opened in 1997 in Toulouse, the Cité de l’Espace is a science centre covering both astronomy and astronautics, in a 4-hectare park.
Life-size spacecraft are displayed in the gardens: the 53-metre replica of Ariane 5, a Soyuz capsule and the Apollo lunar module. The engineering model of the Mir space station shows the living conditions of astronauts in orbit. The site also has two planetariums, an IMAX cinema, Moon rocks and Martian meteorites.
For groups : Groups can book a guided tour or a workshop at a flat rate, in groups of 20 to 25 people, in French, English, Spanish, Italian or German depending on guide availability. The driver enters free of charge, as does one person for every 20 paying admissions. A full day should be allowed to see the whole site, which has coach parking, catering areas and picnic rooms. The park is fully accessible and holds the Tourisme et Handicap label for all four types of disability.
