Born from project RockWalk Brasil, which currently travels all over the country with an itinerary show at Culture Rooms, Show Houses and Shopping Malls, both creation of the business man, musician, journalist and events producer, Marcio Mota, the never seen and ambitious “Parque do Rock” (Rock Park) aims to consolidate as the first TOURIST DISTRICT in Brazil, model of great success in Europe and USA and still not seen in the country, uniting in one single destination a Theme Park, Conventions Centers, Shopping Centers, Culture, Entertainment, Multiuse Arena and Hotel Complex, certainly the largest in the segment in the world.
Project
Of an uncontestable claim with the national media along with the interest of channels in order to release their spaces to the project “RockWalk Brasil”, according to commercial clipping produced by MMP Press, the “Parque do Rock” (Rock Park) will certainly attract even more spontaneous press interested in making the initiative a big success of national and international media.
After MANY researches and detailed studies of the project feasibility, we come to some first conclusions: the “Parque do Rock” (Rock Park), will make part of the RockWalk Brasil - “Calçada da Fama do Rock” apart of many other cultural entertainment attractions (more than 30) and of 6 stages.
The Park will have an area of 800.000 m² concluded already foreseeing many construction steps and launching.
The Park will also create the conditions to attract hundreds of daily visitors in Ribeirão Preto* area during the working period even in bank holidays or weekend due to the arrival of tourists from many other locations as described below.
The main reasons for the area choice are linked to the important PIB of the region which has 80 cities with important economic and cultural aspects and a topography that makes easy the access through the famous highways of the province.
*Located at Rodovia Abrão Assed SP 333, which was recently duplicated, this highway links Ribeirão Preto to Serrana. The area that the Park is intended to be built stays 10 km far from Ribeirão Preto and 4 km far from Serrana. So, this area belongs to Serrana, whose mayor Dr. Nelson Cavalheiro Garavazzo purposes fiscal incentives and many other supports including his personal interest and efforts to get the project done as soon as possible.

The "Park Face"
Its bigness in the several meaning of the word should reach even the skeptics; at last, the success depends on everybody’s opinion.
New researches have come and the obvious result pointed to the biggest icon of the rock world: the guitar. Simple and magic, it is the holy symbol for any mortal who needs the music to live.
Afterwards, it was easy to identify the model known as “stratocaster” created in the beginning of 50s for Leo Fender in California as the most famous, desired and played of all times by the greatest musicians of the world. An immediate identification: “strato” with the rock.
Ready.
It was created the “Park Face”, a guitar with 340 m of length and 114 m of width with many details. The body has about 12.600 m² being 50% covered and a front with 12 m apart of a bridge made of one wood deck having about 2.600 m² and 163 m of length.
The middle of this guitar bridge will have two floors with about 2.200 m² each where the Arts College could be installed with degree courses of Music and Theater. The sides of this bridge will be made of glass and will give the opportunity to give a beautiful view of the external areas.
Six lifts in three different points of this bridge will serve the public being two of them panoramic with a spectacular view for the interior of the guitar.
