Company picnics by the Lublin reservoir
Company picnics in Lublin have one rare asset you will not find elsewhere: the Zemborzyce Reservoir, known as the Lublin sea. It is a broad body of water with beaches and wide meadows on which a mass outdoor event lays out with ease, with separate zones for staff and their families. Ready-made centres operate around the reservoir - Nova Marina, Playa Marina and Sloneczny Wrotkow - along with kayak and pedal-boat rentals, windsurfing gear and a water-ski lift. As a result, a single site combines the feel of a seaside holiday with full back-of-house support for a company picnic.
When we want a whole family day to fit into one well-organised space, Nova Marina works superbly. Across its broad waterside grounds there is a covered campfire shelter seating a large group, a bar with a beer garden, event tents and a sensory play zone for the youngest guests. It is a turnkey solution: the stage, the catering, the entertainment and the children's corner sit side by side, so the logistics of an open-air event simplify to a minimum and a rainy day does not overturn the plan.
The Zemborzyce Reservoir carries picnics for whole workforces
The Zemborzyce Reservoir brings together water, beaches and broad meadows with back-of-house support in the form of car parks, food outlets and a bicycle rental. Right beside it runs the fenced MOSiR Sloneczny Wrotkow event ground, with a marquee, a stage and a barbecue area - ready infrastructure for an open-air event with access to power and sanitary facilities.
On these grounds we organise family festivals and company picnics for large teams from the services and industrial sectors. We write water activities, a campfire and children's entertainment into one coherent plan for the day, while nearby agritourism farms add shelters, campfires and horse riding for smaller groups.
City parks turn historic greenery into a family stage
Within the city itself, outdoor integration works best in Park Ludowy and Park Saski. Park Ludowy, a regenerated area on the Bystrzyca river with a kayak marina and wooden decks, has hosted the city's Family Picnics with bouncy castles and entertainers for years, so it offers proven infrastructure for a stage, catering and a children's zone.
Park Saski, the oldest park in Lublin, adds an amphitheatre, a small lake and one of the best playgrounds, so its listed greenery becomes a natural backdrop for a family event. For larger, more representative productions we reach for open spaces with room for a stage, such as the Blonia below Lublin Castle - a broad meadow in the very centre where concerts and open-air events are held regularly.
From the trade-fair grounds to the open-air museum
For very large picnics that need solid technical back-up, the Lublin Trade Fair makes available a broad outdoor exhibition area with its own car park, with hard standing and infrastructure that make extensive festivals and displays straightforward to run. Lublin also offers genuinely unconventional settings.
The Museum of the Lublin Village, or the open-air museum, hires out grounds for festivals, campfires and integration gatherings in the atmosphere of a bygone countryside, with a clear commercial booking procedure to be arranged ahead. When a stronger dose of adrenaline is wanted, we organise the off-road part nearby - paintball, quad bikes and 4x4 - while a rope park in the pine forest by the reservoir and the water slides at Sloneczny Wrotkow enrich the family character of the event.
Frequently asked
For a mass outdoor event we most often choose the Zemborzyce Reservoir, with its meadows and the Nova Marina, Playa Marina and Sloneczny Wrotkow centres - a single site delivers water, beaches and plenty of room. For a very large, representative event in the centre, the Blonia below the castle and the outdoor grounds of the Lublin Trade Fair, with parking, also work well.
A family day gains the most when timed to the opening of the bathing area and equipment rentals at the Zemborzyce Reservoir and to the city's Family Picnics in Park Ludowy, because that is when the water activities, beaches and kayak marina are running. Where poorer weather is a risk, we opt for covered venues such as the campfire shelter at Nova Marina or event tents, so the picnic goes ahead whatever the conditions.
For families we pair the event with a rope park in the pine forest by the reservoir, the water slides at Sloneczny Wrotkow and a petting zoo near the Roztocze. In Park Saski the amphitheatre and a large playground are an asset, while the UMCS Botanical Garden adds educational workshops for children.
