The development of the 240-hectare (593-acre) attraction is intended to provide Poland with a comparable experience to other European theme parks, such as Europa-Park in Rust, Germany.
Companies involved with the scheme include
JoraVision,
Vekoma Rides Manufacturing and
AGS Architects - all based in The Netherlands, as well as Poland-based
RCK and
Imtech.
German water ride manufacturer
Hafema and consulting firm
Tebodin will also work on the construction of Adventure World Warsaw, which is due for completion in 2014.
An international consortium of private and institutional investors registered in Luxembourg - Las Palm - will fund the project, which will cost around EUR400m (US$487m, £315m).
Adventure World Warsaw will be divided into five themes, with working names including Castle Island; Creature Lagoon; Adventure Harbour; Land of Legends; and Polski Plaza.
It will incorporate more than 25 attractions, two hotels representing 800 bedrooms and one of Poland's largest waterparks, as well as an entertainment area with cinemas and eateries.
