Warner Park Madrid, officially known as Parque Warner Madrid, is a globally recognized theme park located in the San Martin de la Vega municipality, about 23 kilometers southeast of Madrid, the capital city of Spain. Opened on April 5, 2002, the park spans a massive area of 150 hectares, making it one of the largest theme parks in Europe.
Parque Warner Madrid is divided into five themed areas, namely the Hollywood Boulevard, Cartoon Village, Old West Territory, Super Heroes World, and Movie World Studios. Each of these zones offers a unique experience based on different franchises of the American entertainment conglomerate, Warner Bros.
The Hollywood Boulevard section greets visitors with a replica of the famous Hollywood street, complete with palm trees and famed art deco architecture. The Cartoon Village is a paradise for younger visitors, featuring characters such as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Tweety Bird in vibrant, colorful surroundings.
The Old West Territory transports visitors to the Wild West with its thematic restaurants, shops, and attractions, including the famous wooden roller coaster, Coaster-Express. Super Heroes World is a haven for DC Comic fans, housing thrilling rides like Batman: The Ride, Superman: The Ride, and The Joker's Funhouse.
Movie World Studios, inspired by New York City and the golden age of Hollywood, is home to some of the park’s most exciting attractions, including the Stunt Fall roller coaster and the Police Academy Stunt Show.
Inside the park, there are numerous restaurants offering a variety of cuisines, a plethora of shops selling exclusive Warner Bros. merchandise, and various live shows and street entertainment that add to the overall charm of the place.
One of the most interesting facts about the park is that it holds the second-largest Warner Bros. store in the world, right after the one in New York. Another remarkable feature is the park's commitment to the environment, with around 10,000 trees and 600,000 shrubs planted across the premises.
In terms of architecture, the park is a grand spectacle. The meticulous attention to detail in replicating the thematic areas, coupled with state-of-the-art technology used in rides and attractions, ensures an immersive experience for the visitors. The interior of each building, be it a restaurant, shop, or ride, is designed to match the theme of its respective area, creating a seamless blend of fantasy and reality.
