After long wait, Poland will finally have a theme park resort offering a standard comparable to Alton Towers, Efteling or Europa-Park. Adventure World Warsaw will open in spring 2014 at 30-minutes travelling distance from Warsaw, in the city of Grodzisk Mazowiecki. The investment will cover the area of approximately 240 hectares. It will consist of the theme park, two hotels, a water park and an entertainment area.
Poland will be able to boast the largest year-round fun park in this part of Europe. Adventure World Warsaw is the first investment of its kind, combining the theme park with over 25 surprising attractions, 2 hotels offering jointly 800 rooms, Poland’s largest water park, as well as an entertainment area with cinemas, restaurants, shops and clubs.
The park itself will consist of five theme islands, with the following working names at the design stage: the Adventure Harbour, the Creature Lagoon, the Castle Island, the Land of Legends and the “Polski” Plaza. All kinds of attractions will be available on each island, including super coasters, water slides, wave pools, interactive fountains, boat cruises or carousels. The yearround part of the park will include indoor playgrounds for children, interactive shows and animations and the water park. All in an amazing scenery of fairy tales and legends.
