Below is an overview of the four Polish theme parks of Momentum Leisure: flagship park Majaland Kownaty and the three satellite parks currently under development in Warsaw, Gdansk and Katowice. Each park is described and also referred to in the catchment area in which it operates or will operate.

Theme Parks in Poland

Momentum Leisure is rolling out the Plopsa formula in Poland, with a flagship park in Kownaty and three satellite parks in the other corners of the country. The proven theme park formula of partner Plopsa is based on the 360-degree media formula, which leverages the power and appeal of characters such as Maya the Bee and Wickie the Viking. The development and operation of four parks spread across Poland means we cover the entire catchment area.

Majaland Warsaw

Majaland Warszawa was opened on April 30, 2022. Majaland Warsaw will be part of a comprehensive complex combining shopping, leisure, and entertainment.
 
Only existing and proven themes and attractions of Majaland Kownaty will be used and replicated in this park, meaning the construction risk is relatively limited. The listed construction company CFE is responsible for the construction. The park is being developed in cooperation with real estate company Ceetrus, a subsidiary of the Auchan group.

Majaland Katowice

Majaland Katowice is expected to be built largely as an indoor park with a small number of outdoor attractions.
