Many people ask themselves, whether to go on a trip to Energylandia when the forecast predicts rain and, even worse, storms. It’s hard to answer unequivocally, because a lot depends on our predispositions and resistance to bad weather. It is also known that when traveling across Poland for 1-2 days to Energylandia, we expect good weather, so that we can have fun, not sit under a roof. So is it worth going to the park in bad weather and do the attractions at Energylandia operate during rain? Storm? Strong wind?
Energylandia in spring, autumn or winter – is it worth it?
In spring and autumn we have definitely more rainy days than in summer. Also, especially on spring days, Poland is visited by storms, which have been getting stronger in recent years. However, if our trip to Energylandia in spring or autumn is one of many in the year, then a light rain shouldn’t be a problem. You can always put on a cap, take an umbrella, or put on a plastic raincoat. In case of heavier precipitation, wait in one of the restaurants or rest areas that are covered.
Forecasts predicting rainfall also herald a low number of people in the park. Thanks to this, we will be almost certain that we will use everything without standing in lines. It will be different when heavy rain clouds gather and it rains all day. Unfortunately, such weather is no longer pleasant and the fun in Energylandia will end quickly and we will leave the park with a sense of dissatisfaction.
In winter, we can expect cold and frosty days and even snowfall. However, this is not a period when we cannot have fun at Energylandia. Contrary to appearances, good clothing, gloves, a balaclava, or even ski goggles will ensure we have great fun on winter days. Energylandia’s winter décor, fireplaces and braziers will keep you warm, and the low guest turnout will ensure queue-free use of the rollercoasters. In frosty weather some attractions may not operate, and the entire Water Park and water attractions are closed.

Do the attractions at Energylandia operate during rain?
Yes! In spring, autumn and summer all attractions are open, even when it rains. The devices are properly manufactured and prepared to work in such difficult conditions for them. While you can have fun during a drizzle, during a regular rainfall on fast attractions it is not so pleasant. Drops of water hitting our face feel like hundreds of needles being inserted deep into the skin. In turn, drops hitting the eyes can even cause eye damage. It is therefore worth putting on ski goggles, pulling the hood tight or putting on a balaclava. During heavy rain or hail, attractions may already be turned off.
Do the attractions at Energylandia operate during a storm?
No. All outdoor attractions are closed when an approaching lightning storm is visible on the horizon. The only exceptions are attractions in buildings, such as Monster House or 7D Cinema. I personally encourage you to wait out the storm in one of the restaurants in the building. A storm is usually a short-term and local phenomenon. So you can safely assume that it should pass within a few dozen minutes. So we don’t have to rush to leave and go home if there are still many hours until Energylandia closes.
Do the attractions at Energylandia operate during strong winds?
Strong winds are a threat to tall structures. Of course, we are talking about a situation without a storm, but only strong gusts of wind. Especially since Zator is located relatively close to a mountain range. As a result, it is exposed to frequent strong winds.
The only attraction that I know of that is turned off when the wind exceeds 70 km/h is the Space Booster (apparently it has built-in wind sensors that prevent the device from starting in strong winds). I don’t know of any other data on the attraction’s resistance to wind. I suspect that Aztec Swing, Tsunami Drop, Zadra, Abyssus or Hyperion may also be turned off in really strong gusts of wind exceeding 80-90 km/h. However, there’s no need to worry in advance. Such strong winds are rare.
