SeaWorld Orlando Unveils Plans for New Flying Theater Attraction

Get ready for a change in temperature. SeaWorld Orlando unveiled plans for the World’s first-of-its-kind Arctic flying theater.

This new experience invites families to soar over icy landscapes, dive beneath frozen waters and come face-to-face with some of the planet’s most magnificent creatures. It is a combination of a thrilling ride, along the lines of a roller coaster, and a wildlife experience.

The Arctic flying theater is scheduled to debut in the spring of 2025. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DAGuWPnKnMu/embed/captioned/?cr=1&v=14&wp=540&rd=https%3A%2F%2Fadmin.travelpulse.com&rp=%2FWorkArea%2FContentDesigner%2Fdialogs%2Frichtextentry.aspx%3Ffolderid%3D1409%26contentid%3D554965#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A17530.5%7D

The attraction is set indoors so it will not be weather-dependent, and it will feature Beluga whales and walruses, among other animals.

“We are thrilled to introduce this first-of-its-kind attraction to SeaWorld Orlando,” said Jon Peterson, President of SeaWorld Orlando. “This indoor immersive flying theater experience reinforces our commitment to education, animal care and research.

“As guests disembark from the attraction, they’ll find themselves in the awe-inspiring wonder of one of the world’s most remote places, face-to-face with some of those very animals found within the Arctic such as beluga whales, walruses and more,” Peterson continued. “By bringing the wonders of the Arctic to life, we are offering guests an unparalleled and immersive experience that will create lasting memories for people of all ages.”

Riders will embark on this 4:30-minute journey within one of two of the attraction’s immersive multi-level theaters, each accommodating 30 guests. They will experience the Arctic as if they were truly there, witnessing jaw-dropping visuals both in the air and underwater, including the stunning Aurora Borealis and remote, untouched areas of the Arctic.

And it’s family-friendly, with a minimum height restriction of just 39 inches.
