In November 2024, Soarin’ Around the World at EPCOT received two key updates that bring fresh enhancements to this popular attraction. The changes focus on improving the Eiffel Tower scene and introducing a new finale featuring EPCOT’s World Celebration neighborhood.
What’s New?
- Eiffel Tower Scene Update: The Eiffel Tower segment now provides a more accurate and realistic view. Adjustments were made to correct the distortion previously caused by the curvature of the projection screen. This change offers a clearer and more immersive experience for guests flying over Paris.
- New Finale: The finale now features EPCOT’s World Celebration neighborhood, showcasing the park’s updated look. Guests glide over a nighttime scene with Spaceship Earth glowing in the distance, surrounded by fireworks. The finale aligns the ride with EPCOT’s current design, reflecting its transformation.
Why It’s Important
These updates not only improve the overall experience but also ensure the attraction stays relevant to EPCOT’s ongoing evolution. They enhance the storytelling and visual quality of Soarin’ Around the World, making it even more enjoyable for guests.
