Another prominent attraction is La Venganza del Enigma, a structure 100 meters high that drops visitors at 80 km/h. On 17 June 2014, a water park named Parque Warner Beach was opened. The €8.5 million park spans 30,000 square metres (320,000 sq ft) and features two wave pools, a lazy river and two water play areas. Like parts of the original theme park, Parque Warner Beach is themed around Looney Tunes, Hanna Barbera and DC Comics characters.Īmong its roller coasters, highlights include Superman: La Atracción de Acero, a first in Europe with its floorless trains, Batman: Arkham Asylum, an inverted roller coaster, Coaster-Express, a wooden coaster and Stunt Fall, a giant inverted boomerang offering guests a vertical drop of 54.4 m reaching a top speed of 115 km/h. The 2008 season saw two further developments: a family water attraction called Oso Yogui and a new show, The Music of Bugs Bunny, based around the glamor of Hollywood in a performance reminiscent of the great Broadway musicals. Both received good reviews from visitors to the park. This season saw the première of two new shows, Police Academy 2 and Batman Begins, the latter based on the latest movie from Warner Brothers and DC Comics. In 2006, the park was renamed again to "Parque Warner Madrid".
In 2002, director Pilar Azcárraga said that visitors' satisfaction was around 90%, but union sources put it at 50%. The park was opened to the general public on 6 April 2002, and was managed by Six Flags until November 2004, although it only had a 5% share in the park, with the majority shareholder being the Community of Madrid, with 40% of the shares (other shareholders included Caja Madrid 20%, 15% Fadesa, El Corte Inglés 5%, NH Hotels 5%).
Movie World Madrid had a grand opening on 5 April 2002 with 10,000 invited guests including Bo Derek and Christopher Lambert as special guests.
