Construction on the Paramount Theme Park Murcia has officially begun following a formal ceremony today attended by several dignatories, officials and members of the press.
Expected to create more than 22,000 much needed jobs in the region, Premursa President Jesus Samper believes the project will become an international tourist destination and attract more than 3 million visitors per year.
Despite a few false starts and hurdles along the way such as land purchasing problems , today marks an important milestone towards the official opening of the park together with it's much anticipated LifeStyle Center in Spring 2015.
Corey : The truth of the matter is that very little has happened on site at Paramount over recent months due to the changes in planning following a reshuffle of the footprint. If you click the link >>HERE<< you can see a short video clip of the actual site (as of 2 weeks ago) showing just how little has been acheived to date.
As far as Corvera Airport is concerned, the regional Gov't of Murcia recently announced how Corvera and San Javier "could" both operate at the same time for a period of up to 6 months within the next few months - Click here for that article >>HERE<<
I think the formula used by Premursa to calculate expected visitor numbers is something similar to this :
Actual visitor numbers for Port Aventura x actual visitor numbers for Park Warner x actual visitor numbers for Isla Majica, Divided by probability of Corvera Airport ever opening, minus the probability of ever being able to attract investors.
That or they have no idea themselves, but think that everybody will get so exited about the prospect of 22'000 new jobs that they won't pay too much attention to their figures.
