SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment breaks ground on new Orlando headquarters
ORLANDO, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35) - SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment on Thursday held a groundbreaking ceremony for its new headquarters to be based at SeaWorld Orlando.
“Today is much more than the groundbreaking of a new building. It is about the foundation we are continuing to fortify and build upon as a company to extend and carry out our mission – to save species, learn about them, protect them, educate others about them, and help them flourish, both in our care and in the wild,” said John Reilly, Interim CEO of SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment.
Assisting in the ceremony was the Millennia Gardens Elementary School Eco Club, a local group of students that have been inspired by the SeaWorld Orlando Rescue Team.
The 40,725 square foot, three-story building will be a shared home for ambassadors from the current Park Support Center and at the SeaWorld Orlando park. It is expected to open in Fall 2019.
