SeaWorld Orlando announced details regarding its brand-new journey to the Arctic attraction, debuting later this spring. The all-new Expedition Odyssey: Fire & Ice will take guests on the ultimate mission — exploring the powerful forces that shape one of the most extreme environments on earth, as they ascend above volcanoes, glide over glaciers and plunge into the deep, getting up close to arctic animals making for an adventure never experienced before!
“Guests are in for an absolute treat with the all-new Expedition Odyssey: Fire & Ice,” said Justin Newton, senior vice president of project delivery for United Parks & Resorts, SeaWorld’s parent company. “We are introducing a brand-new entry experience, a themed pre-show, and an entirely new immersive, story-driven, high-definition attraction designed to deliver a visually compelling, transportive journey and leave them awestruck.”
The All-New Expedition
Guests will step into an Arctic research outpost experience, where they join a scientific field mission to explore and document the incredible Arctic landscapes and remarkable wildlife that thrive in this extreme yet wondrous environment. Passing through a refurbished hangar and active research station, guests will find themselves surrounded by the tools, technology, and stories of those who venture into one of the most extreme environments on Earth.
Once inside the heart of the research station, guests prepare to board a prototype research drone craft for their mission. Before departure, a research scientist delivers a final briefing, highlighting the powerful natural forces of Fire and Ice and what to watch for during the expedition.
From there, guests are launched into a visually stunning, dramatic story-driven mission through the many vast terrains of the Arctic, including an erupting volcano, mountain peaks, glaciers, icebergs, rivers and waterfalls – all brought to life through a new high definition cinematic experience and dynamic environments designed to fully engage the state-of-the-art ride system and blur the line between simulation and reality.
Newton added, “From the moment guests arrive at the Arctic research station to the grand reveal of the all-new mission control experience, they journey deeper into the story of two powerful forces – Fire and Ice – that shaped our planet and helped create polar life. Every detail is designed to deliver a visually compelling, transportive experience, culminating in an incredible illusion that leaves guests questioning how it was even possible.” This all-new adventure reinforces SeaWorld Orlando’s commitment to continuously evolving its attractions and delivering new and exciting reasons for guests to visit while also educating and inspiring them about conservation and caring for the planet.
