>THEME PARKS

Walt Disney was always fascinated with technology and always explored cultures from around the world. So where better can you experience the wonders of the future and explore the cultures of the world than at Epcot®! Every day, this one-of-a-kind Theme Park ignites the senses and sets spirits soaring.

Future World is where high-tech meets big fun. On the new Soarin’™ attraction, fly over the magnificent state of California for a breathtaking adventure. Thrill seekers can blast into Mission: SPACE® for the most exhilarating, sensory thrill ride. The reality of space flight makes for an awesome adventure for the crew in command of an out-of-this-world journey. Test drivers can push the pedal to the metal at Test Track, an exhilarating with high-cranking excitement. And you won’t believe their size when Professor Wayne Szalinski turns his amazing machine on the whole theater in Honey, I Shrunk the Audience! Travel down the “Road to Tomorrow” at Innoventions to explore and experience the first-hand new technologies before the rest of the world does. The loveable and fun-loving Figment is back! Join Figment and Dr. Nigel Channing for a journey that will engage the imagination and the senses. And that’s just for starters.

World Showcase is a cultural exploration of eleven great nations. You can encounter tricky trolls on a Viking expedition and journey through the poetic mountains of China.

And there’s something to amaze the eyes and the ears around every corner! From incredible acrobats to rock-n-roll bagpipes there’s an international kaleidoscope of entertainment to discover.

For an inspiring grand finale, IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth celebrates the planet we call home with a majestic display of music, fireworks, lasers and special effects.
