We regularly serve the SILESIAN STADIUM — the iconic "Kotłownia" (55 211 seats), the national football stadium of Poland from 1956 to 2017, host to the national team during World Cup and European Championship qualifiers and to legendary stadium concerts (U2, the Rolling Stones, Metallica, Ed Sheeran). Frequent destinations also include the SILESIAN PARK attractions: Chorzów Zoo (47 hectares, 350 species), the Amusement Park (operating since 1959), the Nicolaus Copernicus Silesian Planetarium (1955, the largest planetarium in Poland), the Upper Silesian Ethnographic Park open-air museum and the Upper Silesian Museum. Silesian Park sits on the border of Chorzów, Katowice and Siemianowice Śląskie — a strategic GZM location.
Silesian Park requires familiarity with the layout of several entrances — the most commonly used are the main gate from Chorzowska Street (Aleja Różana, the "Spodek" gate), the gate from Katowicka Street (the "Stadium" gate) and the gate from the Siemianowice Śląskie side. On Polish national-team match days (qualifiers, Polish Cup finals) or stadium concerts, the surrounding streets become congested 3-4 hours before the event and for 2 hours afterwards — we plan with a generous buffer. The stadium has its own VIP car parks for booked transfers. Chorzów Zoo has its own car park on Aleja Wojska Polskiego.
This route works well for fans of the Polish national team (Silesian Stadium is a legend of Polish football — the "Kotłownia" nickname was coined after the Poland-USSR match in 1957, when fans literally "boiled" with emotion), guests of stadium concerts (from the Stones to Ed Sheeran), families with children (Zoo + Amusement Park + Planetarium is the classic full day in the park) and Upper Silesia tourists combining Silesian Park with the Silesian Museum. We operate 24/7, including after concerts (typically 23:00-00:30). The fare is fixed and confirmed before travel; flight tracking, arrivals pickup with a name board and 60 minutes of waiting after landing are included. Payment is completed online by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or BLIK. Child seats, boosters and larger luggage space can be prepared on request.
