SeaWorld Orlando’s all-new Expedition Odyssey: Fire & Ice exclusively opened to SeaWorld Orlando Pass Members on Saturday, May 23, inviting families to embark on a breathtaking Arctic adventure unlike anything else. The attraction opened to the general public on Memorial Day, Monday, May 25.
The all-new Expedition Odyssey: Fire & Ice takes guests on a story-driven mission through the powerful natural forces that shape the Arctic. Guests will soar above erupting volcanoes, glide across frozen landscapes, dive beneath icy waters and journey through Arctic environments alongside wildlife including beluga whales, sperm whales, seals and polar bears, all brought to life through an immersive high-definition cinematic experience and SeaWorld Orlando’s ride system.
“Expedition Odyssey: Fire & Ice is one of the most ambitious and immersive attractions we have ever created,” said Justin Newton, senior vice president of project delivery for United Parks & Resorts, SeaWorld’s parent company. “From the moment guests step inside the Arctic research station, every detail has been designed to fully transport them into this frozen world and leave them questioning how it was even possible.”
Guests begin their mission inside a newly transformed Arctic research outpost, complete with themed environments, mission control areas and a pre-launch briefing from a research scientist preparing them for the expedition ahead. The attraction blends storytelling, dynamic motion, immersive environments and visuals to blur the line between simulation and reality.
