The first Paramount park in Europe Parque Paramount Alhama de Murcia, will become a major destination attraction with a completely immersive theme park that brings the legendary films of Paramount to life.
The park, designed with exciting state-of-the-art technologies, will include over 30 attractions designed to appeal to a broad spectrum of ages and interests. There will also be 2 themed hotels located within the park's boundaries as well as themed stores and restaurants that will be based on Paramount properties. This story-driven park will quickly become one of the most compelling theme parks in Europe.
Paramount Promenade provides a grand entrance to the experience and serves as the main artery through the park.
In addition to an enticing collection of retail and restaurant offerings, this is where Paramount Live, a live-stage-spectacular will be found.
The rest of the park is divided into 4 themed areas that transport visitors into compelling scenes from Paramount movies: Adventure City is where action fans will experience the most vivid and exciting scenes from movies such as Mission: Impossible; Rango's West is based on the hit cartoon film Rango and it includes Rango 4D, a Ragin' River Rapids ride and the Spirit of the West Mine Coaster; Woodland Fantasy will become the favourite place for children, as they are invited to sharpen their magic skills at the Stardust Wizard's Workshop and embark on an interactive dark ride adventure at the Spiderwick Chronicles; finally, Plaza Futura will be dedicated to thrilling and other-wordly science fiction experiences based on Paramount films such as Star Trek.
LifeStyle Center, a strategic center for business, cultural and leisure activities.
Next to the theme park is the LifeStyle Centre, a complex that will become a core center for the business, cultural and leisure activity of the area throughout the year. The LifeStyle Centre will include top-quality infrastructure, excellent hotels, restaurants, and leisure activities delivered at such a high level that is certain to become an economic engine for the Region of Murcia.
The Lifestyle Centre can be divided into 3 main areas: hotel complex, leisure area and business area. The hotel complex will include 7 hotels, with service and styles broad enough to accommodate leisure and business travellers. Four of the hotels will be 3-star hotels; two will be 4-stars hotels, with a convention area, with particular appeal for business travellers and event hostings; and finally, a 5-star hotel for the most demanding clientele. The 5-star hotel will include a casino, adding an attractive nightlife component to the LifeStyle Centre.
Leisure will be another appealing part of this complex. The commercial area will be integrated into a Street Mall of 150,000 sqm; where the restaurant and night leisure area will include space for night clubs and bars. In addition, the LifeStyle Centre will allow the exhibition of major cultural events in its auditorium, exhibition room and large convention area -- a collection of venues and high-level infrastructure that is not currently offered in Murcia.
These new projects complete the major business and cultural offer of the LifeStyle Centre and will establish it as an urban centre designed to meet all visitor needs.
Adjacent to the Lifestyle Centre, the commercial area will include a state-of-the-art business complex that will allow the development of a true financial hub for the region.
In order to facilitate transportation between the park and the rest of the complex, the project will have a network of ecological vehicles. In addition to providing easy circulation, the transportation system will preserve the environment by supporting sustainable energy technology.
In short, the LifeStyle Centre will become an important asset for economic, cultural and leisure development in Spain and will also serve as a perfect neighbour for a unique, world-class theme park.
The opening of Parque Paramount Alhama de Murcia is projected to take place in spring, 2015, along with the first phase of the LifeStyle Centre. |
