Pandora – The World of Avatar is an immersive land inspired by James Cameron’s Avatar film franchise. The land transports guests to the world of Pandora, complete with bioluminescent flora, floating mountains, and the unique culture of the Na’vi people. The land opened in 2017 with cutting-edge technology, home to two incredibly impressive rides and a stunning visual presence.
The main attractions in Pandora – The World of Avatar are Flight of Passage and Na’vi River Journey. The forms are a 3D simulator ride, where guests soar on a Banshee over the stunning landscapes of Pandora. Na’vi River Journey is a family-friendly boat ride that takes guests through a bioluminescent rainforest, culminating in an encounter with the Na’vi Shaman of Songs (an incredibly impressive animatronic). Additionally, you’ll find shopping and dining experiences, along with views you won’t possibly find anywhere else in Pandora.
