Red Force
Red Force is Ferrari Land's big launch coaster. According to the park, it's the tallest and fastest roller coaster in Europe. In 5 seconds you go from 0 to 180 km/h, after which you shoot up a 112-metre tower.
Built like a racing car
The coaster is all about Formula 1. You get the same acceleration as in an F1 car, thanks to a magnetic launch system. Construction began in early 2016. A year later the Ferrari shield arrived at the park: the first "prancing horse" is 12 metres tall, weighs 9 tonnes and stands at the front by the launch.
The Experience
You sit in a red train and wait for the start signal. Then you're pushed forward with tremendous force, straight towards the tower. You go vertically up to the highest point in Ferrari Land (The Summit). Then it's straight back down again. The whole track is 880 metres long. The ride is short, but you'll feel the launch long afterwards.
Discover Red Force
Go early or late in the day
Red Force is Ferrari Land's showpiece. The queue is usually shortest right after opening and just before closing time.
Use the Express
Short on time? This ride is included in the Ferrari Land Express ONE (one fast-track entry to a ride of your choice) and in the Express Ferrari Land for five rides. An Express is cheaper online than in the park (as of November 2026).
Take your photo home
Red Force is a photo ride. You can buy your photo at the exit, in the Red Force Photo Ride shop.
Visitor information
You need to be between 1.40 and 1.95 metres tall. There's no supervision arrangement for smaller riders. There's a separate entrance for visitors with disabilities, but Red Force is temporarily unavailable to wheelchair users. Ferrari Land isn't open all year round. Check the opening calendar on the PortAventura World website before you go.
The heart of Ferrari Land
You can see Red Force towering above the resort from far away. If you dare to ride it, you'll have done the fastest ride at PortAventura World. For younger racers there's Junior Red Force, this coaster's little sister.
