In this scenario, Urban Parks appear, areas located in the middle of the city, these spaces should draw the attention of public managers for several reasons, but mainly, because they offer an environment opposite to urban harshness. Thus, in view of the importance of these places for the city and the difficulty of municipal governments in maintaining these spaces, the article aimed to verify the possibilities of public-private partnerships for the effective management of the Urban Parks of Manaus under the tutelage of the City Hall, highlighting the uniqueness of public good of these spaces. Aligning the methodological aspects of the research, it was decided as to the nature of the qualitative method, adopting procedures of bibliographical and documentary research, and as for the descriptive exploratory purposes, with the adoption of interviews carried out with the Instituto Municipal Urbano de Manaus (IMPLURB) and the Municipal Secretariat of Environment (SEMMAS). The research finding was that public-private partnerships do not encounter legal impediments; they are supported by the managerial public administration, by Federal Law nº 11,079, 12/30/2004, and, by contractual force, are the fastest way to efficiently meet such an important demand for the life of cities.
