Company Picnics in Glogow company picnics by the Oder in Glogow
Company picnics in Glogow are best set where the city meets the Oder. The Oder Boulevard is the most popular riverside recreation area, with a view of the Castle of the Dukes of Glogow and Ostrow Tumski, the cradle of the city's thousand-year history. Wide avenues, cycle paths, playgrounds and food points give a ready base on which it is easy to add a stage, catering tents and animation corners for whole families.
We cover Glogow on both banks of the Oder, from intimate integrations on the boulevard beneath the castle walls to festivals stretching as far as Ostrow Tumski. A natural extension of the boulevard is the Marina on the Oder, where floating piers, a kayak and pedal-boat hire and the moored passenger vessel Laguna form the picnic's water zone. Joining these two areas into one stretch lets us run an outdoor event: the riverbank for activities, the marina point with food as the back-of-house, and the high bank for a stage and open-air dancing.
Slowianski Park and family parks: a cultural frame and space for the youngest
When the programme is to be more cultural than aquatic, Slowianski Park in the centre works well. A multimedia fountain with light and music shows, the neighbouring palm house and the avenue layout proven at concerts make this place an elegant frame for company integration with performances and workshops.
For typically family events, the expansive grassy grounds of the Municipal Park and the Forest Park offer safe playgrounds and space for blankets, bouncy castles and animation games for children. In summer the Chrobry bathing area, with a clean beach, slides and a paddling pool for the youngest, becomes a base for a family picnic in the hot months.
Adventure, rivalry and a rainy-day plan B by the Oder
The Rope Park by the Oder on Rudnowska Street adds an element of adventure, with routes of varying difficulty including low sections for children. The rivalry module is closed by the nearby O.K. PARK with a bowling alley and an ice rink, easy to weave into the day's scenario as a zone of team tasks under cover.
Logistics of an outdoor event by the Oder require aligning several layers. We usually set the stage on the high bank by the Marina so the sound carries towards the boulevard rather than getting lost over the water, while activities and animation zones move closer to the piers and the catering point. As the ground runs along the river without natural cover, we lay out catering tents on the paved stretches of the boulevard, and the rainy-day plan B is often O.K. PARK, taking over the programme when the open air fails.
The copper region and trips beyond the city
Glogow is the capital of the Copper Belt, and the city's economic landscape is set by the Glogow Copper Smelter belonging to KGHM, the largest plant in the area, around which a metallurgy tradition of celebrating has taken hold, led by Metallurgist's Day. Alongside copper metallurgy and mining there is automotive, with the SITECH plant in the Glogow Industrial Park, while the Glogow subzone gathers further manufacturing and logistics firms. Such a dense network of large plants in a small area makes outdoor family days and integrations part of the local rhythm of work.
For a larger integration trip out of town, Lake Slawskie near Slawa offers the best base, with beaches, holiday resorts in Lubiatow, spots for a bonfire and grill, and ground for a stage. Closer by, in the Dalkow Hills, known as the Little Bieszczady, ancient forests and ravines suit forest hikes, nordic walking and field games. Whatever the variant, the programme can be seasoned with a local accent that roots the event in the city's identity.
Frequently asked
Most often we choose the Oder Boulevard, the city's most popular outdoor area by the river, with a ready base and space for a stage, catering and animation. We join it with the neighbouring Marina to add a water zone with kayaks and the moored passenger vessel Laguna. For very large family days or an integration trip we propose the open air by Lake Slawskie near Slawa.
The optimal season runs from the May long weekend through the whole summer, when the water hire by the Marina and the Chrobry bathing area are open and the grassy parks are at their best. When planning a company picnic we always prepare a rainy-day plan B, for example at O.K. PARK with its bowling alley and restaurant.
For families the Rope Park by the Oder on Rudnowska Street with low routes for children works well, along with playgrounds in the Municipal Park and the Forest Park, and the Chrobry beach in summer. We enrich the programme with workshops by the castle and multimedia fountain shows in Slowianski Park, and for older guests we move the fun under cover at O.K. PARK with its bowling alley and ice rink.
