Energylandia is an amusement park located in Zator, Lesser Poland, in southern Poland. It is approximately Шаблон:Convert away from Kraków[1] and Шаблон:Convert away from Warsaw,[2] Poland's capital city. Energylandia is the largest amusement park in the country,[3] at Шаблон:Convert.[4]
History
Energylandia opened on 14 July 2014. For its first year, there were three roller coasters: the Frutti Loop Coaster, Mars and the Viking Roller Coaster. In 2015, three more roller coasters opened, the Energuś Roller Coaster (a Vekoma Junior Coaster), Roller Coaster Mayan (a Vekoma Suspended Looping Coaster/SLC), and Dragon Roller Coaster (a Vekoma Suspended Family Coaster). In 2016, the park opened Formuła, a launched roller coaster manufactured by Vekoma.[5]
In October 2016, the park announced another three new coasters to open for the 2017 season: a boomerang-style family coaster, Circus Coaster and Happy Loops.[6] The park also announced major plans for a new hypercoaster that would open for the 2018 season.[7] In October 2017, the name of the new mega coaster was revealed to be Hyperion.[8] In addition to Hyperion, the park opened an Intamin water-coaster called Speed for the 2018 season.[9]
On 22 August 2019, Energylandia debuted the ambitious hybrid roller coaster Zadra, a 62.8 metres (206 ft.) tall Rocky Mountain Construction (RMC) creation with a vertical first drop of 90°.[10]
In September 2019, it was announced that a new land called Aqualantis would be opening in April 2020, which would feature a brand-new steel roller coaster called Abyssus. The coaster is a Vekoma Shockwave-model coaster.[11] In addition, a second Vekoma Family Boomerang would open to complement the new attraction. The opening of Aqualantis was delayed to July 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A new Vekoma Mine Train called Choco Chip Creek was announced for 2022 to be a part of the park's new Sweet Valley area. The project got delayed to a 2024 opening.[12]
In 2021, the park was listed as one of Google's top ten most-searched tourist attractions in Europe (8th place), alongside the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, the Sagrada Familia, Germany’s Europa Park, the Colosseum and Milan Cathedral.[13]
Attractions
The park features many attractions, for all ages, including several giant rollercoasters, numerous children’s rides, water rides and more. Attractions are split into different lands or 'zones' with specific themes, each varying somewhat as to the extremity of its featured rides. There is also a water park which consists of four large water “playgrounds” and play structures for children, ages 5–12. The four zones and their attractions are:
Fairytale Land
In Polish, 'Bajkolandia' (meaning ‘fairytale land’) is for the smallest of children visiting the park, featuring very mild roller coasters, carousels and numerous colourful, child-friendly attractions.

Accidents
- On August 16, 2018, a 37-year-old employee was struck and killed by a roller coaster train on the Hyperion coaster. He was attempting to retrieve a guest's phone when he was struck.
- On June 13, 2019, three people were injured when lightning struck a restaurant building near a pool.
Controversies
- In 2019, the employee handbook contained a declaration of faith to be signed by the employee, including affirmations such as "I believe that God will give me everything I need to be successful". Energylandia's spokesperson stated that it comes from Napoleon Hill's The Law of Success and was intended to be purely motivational in nature, rather than religious.[45]
