About

Entertainment group Parques Reunidos is among the most widely attended global leisure chains. It operates and manages over 60 theme parks, water parks, zoos and marine parks around the world, including over 20 parks in the US operated through its subsidiary Palace Entertainment. The Madrid-based legal team, led by Cristina Carro Werner, oversees the day-to-day operations of the company and acts as a control centre for Parques Reunidos’ global legal staff. It has been praised by nominators as ‘one of the leading commercial legal teams in Iberia’, full of ‘sharp, insightful lawyers’ who make ‘a significant contribution to Parques Reunidos’ international operations’. Parques Reunidos has recently expanded its international presence into new markets: in the past 12 months it has taken over the management of Motiongate in Dubai, part of Dubai Parks & Resorts, the Middle East’s largest multi-themed leisure and entertainment destination, and the management of Sun Group-owned Dragon Park in Vietnam, the largest theme park in Southeast Asia.
