Le Bal des Oiseaux Fantômes, Bird show at Puy du Fou theme park in Les Épesses, France
Le Bal des Oiseaux Fantômes is a bird flight show featuring raptors such as eagles, owls, and vultures in an outdoor amphitheater within Puy du Fou theme park. The birds perform coordinated aerial maneuvers that display their natural hunting abilities.
The show was created in 1978 as part of Puy du Fou park to demonstrate traditional European hunting practices. It blends historical falconry with modern entertainment.
Falconers display traditional techniques passed down through the ages while explaining how different raptors behave in nature. You can watch these birds hunt and work together with their trainers throughout the show.
The 30-minute performance runs seasonally with multiple daily shows and offers wheelchair-accessible seating throughout. Arrive early to secure good views and be prepared for changing weather conditions.
More than 200 birds participate in the show, flying together in impressive formations. This coordination between so many animals is remarkable and reflects years of careful training.
