Europe's first covered theme park starring 'Mad Men' and 'The Hunger Games'

Based in a covered complex of just over an acre, the pioneering interactive museum is the result of a deal struck between Hollywood Lionsgate and Parques Reunidos and led by three Spanish celebrities – Luis Álvarez, comedian José Mota and star of the Torrente 'disastrous cop' series of films, Santiago Segura.

Called La Estación, it will be based in Madrid's old North Station – once a direct rival for Atocha but which fell into disuse when Chamartín station opened, the building will soon be partially relaunched as the Bankia-Príncipe Pío Grand Theatre, complete with a concert hall and terraces with panoramic views of the Royal Palace and the Almudena Cathedral.

Once the complex opens to the public in November 2019, it will be Europe's first-ever covered theme park.

Another identical centre will open in the same month in New York's Times Square.

Virtual-reality and 4D simulators allow visitors to get right inside the set of The Hunger Games and visit the restaurants frequented by Don Draper in Mad Men.
