Located a short walk from the Old Town, “Multimedia Fountain Park” (Multimedialny Park Fontann) is a visual delight combining music, light and fountains! It is a great place to cool off and relax with friends and family.

This tourist attraction was opened in May 2011 and it can get a little crowded sometimes…but the show is definitely worth visiting.

On the water screen with fog scattered over the water you will be able to  watch an animated story about the history of Warsaw and some of the popular Warsaw’ legends. There are laser lights and several-meters-high columns of water rising to the rhythm of music, lit by colorful floodlights.

To admire the spectacle you can bring a blanket and sit on a grass!
Shows take place every Friday and Saturday in May, June and July at 9.30 pm, in August at 9pm, and in September at 8.30 pm. Make sure to check the website though, as the show is weather dependent.
In winter, streams of light do the dancing instead of water. During weekends the main fountain changes into a multicolor animated sculpture, and shows are accompanied by beautiful Christmas music.

In the park you’ll also find an indoor art gallery, “Fontanna restaurant”, several monuments and a mural of the Warsaw Uprising. Young children can enjoy the nearby water playground, where on hot summer days they can splash in water! What a perfect way to spend an evening!
