KATOWICE PYRZOWICE AIRPORT · VENUE TRANSFER

Katowice Airport (KTW) → Galeria Katowicka transfer

Galeria Katowicka at ul. 3 Maja 30 is the flagship shopping and entertainment centre of Katowice, opened in 2013 after a complete redevelopment of the district around the main railway station. With 65,000 m² of retail space, the venue houses more than 250 shops, the Cinema City multiplex, restaurants and food courts, and its biggest logistical advantage remains full integration with Katowice PKP railway station — the entrance to the gallery is directly accessible from platform level without leaving the building. The gallery acts as a meeting hub for residents and visitors alike, hosting fashion shows, Cinema City premieres, premium brand campaigns and corporate events that combine shopping with a business programme.

The drive from Katowice-Pyrzowice Airport to Galeria Katowicka covers about 35 km and usually takes 35-50 minutes. The route follows the A1 motorway southbound, then the DTŚ urban expressway and the approach from ul. 3 Maja or the railway-station side. In the afternoon hours traffic builds up around the gallery and Plac Wilhelma Szewczyka, as gallery shoppers, rail passengers and suburban buses arrive simultaneously.

After landing, your chauffeur meets you in arrivals with a name board, assists with luggage and drives directly to the agreed drop-off. The gallery has 2,300 parking spaces, and the entrance from the railway-station side allows a direct walk from platform level to the retail area. For international guests planning shopping before continuing by rail or for delegations combining shopping with a business programme, the drop-off is aligned with the car-park entrance or with the curb zone in front of the main entrance from ul. 3 Maja, according to the current traffic plan.
