New Momentum Leisure chief executive Wouter Dekkers said: "Joining the company in April felt like stepping into a fast-moving roller coaster.

"I am excited and honoured to guide Majaland’s next phase in Poland.

“Our goal is to enhance our parks with compelling family entertainment and attractions.

"It is incredibly gratifying that Majaland will showcase the beloved Nickelodeon brand and its characters to our guests."

Beachfront theme park awarded prestigious gong

Momentum Leisure has been on a mission in Poland since 2008, when it founded and began purchasing land.

And it's not stopping with the Gdansk addition.

Momentum in April announced it would build a theme park and water park in Gliwice, marking its fourth Polish site.

Ambitious plans include having 10 parks in Poland by 2030.

Momentum is owned by Plopsa, a theme park division of Studio 100.

A Belgian company, Plopsa operates eight parks in four countries - Belgium, The Netherlands, Germany and Poland.
