LA RECRE DES 3 CURES

What LA RECRE DES 3 CURES does

La Récré des 3 Curés operates the largest amusement park in Brittany, founded in 1990 and located in Milizac-Guipronvel, Finistère, approximately ten minutes from Brest. The park hosts over 50 attractions and activities across thrill rides, family attractions, water features, and children's zones (Dino Valley, Celtic Zone, Maya Zone), and welcomes approximately 260,000-267,000 visitors annually according to public statements on its recruitment page. The company's flagship asset is the TREMOR drop tower — an 80-meter ride and the third tallest drop tower in France — opened in spring 2025 with a stated development budget exceeding €3 million. The business also operates a year-round 4-star campsite (SARL Camping de la Récré) on the same site and the L'Expo restaurant with a 200-seat indoor area and 150-seat lakeside terrace.

The operating model is direct-to-consumer across three integrated verticals: day tickets (€26 adult / €21 child, valid one year from purchase), campsite accommodations (pitches, fisherman's cabins, Coco Sweet, eco, premium, VIP ranges), and F&B at L'Expo including evening entertainment during the summer season. Distribution spans the park's own e-commerce platform (billetterie.larecredes3cures.com), on-site box office, dedicated corporate/CSE channels for seminars and group events, and partner outlets (Leclerc DRIVE, McDonald's 29, Car Le Roux shuttles, Pathe Brest giveaways) plus reciprocal partnerships with Nigloland, Oce'anopolis Brest, Compagnie Maritime Penn Ar Bed, and Festival Les Petites Folies. The company is structured as a privately held SAS (SAS La Récré des 3 Curés) with wholly-owned operating subsidiaries for the campsite and restaurant, controlled by the Bonnefoy family. A third-party AI chatbot (developed by I-DOXA) handles routine visitor inquiries, and the company is GDPR-compliant under EU Regulation 2016/679.
