Set your phasers to fun!
Paramount will be building a Star Trek theme park treatment at Spain’s Paramount Park Murica. I’m already planning my trip.
According to StarTrek.com:
The wide-ranging project will incorporate condos and office buildings, hotels, malls, a casino, a convention center, gardens, nightlife and dining areas, an exhibition hall/auditorium and… a theme park divided into several sections.
Plaza Futura will be designed to appeal to Star Trek fans. 3D renderings depict a large futuristic square that will include a Starfleet Spain recruiting center, a 3D simulator ride (which allows guests/recruits to experience adventures in outer space), and a Warp Speed Coaster that will reach exciting heights and speeds and include an underground portion (a wormhole, naturally) and several loops.
Set to open at the end of 2015.

Holy Moley! That’s amazing…but isn’t Spain going through some kind of financial crisis? I suppose nothing that a little gold-pressed latinum or some tourist dollars wouldn’t cure… 🙂
( I seem to recall that there was some kind of Star Trek themed, interactive, something or other in Vegas a few years back…but i think it failed)

It really is. I thought so too, but you never know. I read that it has been in the works since 2011.
It sure did. Never knew why.
