Fun Fact: At nearly 6 acres, this pavilion is the largest
in Future World.
The Land is home to one of Epcot's most popular rides, Soarin' Around the World. This is one ride that you want to get to as early as possible to avoid the long lines. You definitely will want to take advantage of securing a FastPass+.
The Land is also home to the Living with the Land boat ride, the Awesome Planet film, the Behind the Seeds Tour, Garden Grill restaurant and the Sunshine Seasons Food Court.
The Circle of Life: An Environmental Fable had its last showing on February 3, 2018 and Awesome Planet took its place and began on January 17, 2020. Awesome Planet explores the spectacular beauty, diversity and dynamic story of Earth. In collaboration with the Disney Conservation Fund, the 10-minute film uses in-theater effects (including wind, scents and water) to tell the story of life on this planet and why it’s vitally important to care for it. Awesome Planet features narration by Ty Burrell, star of ABC’s Modern Family.
A relaxing 13-minute boat ride takes you on an informative
journey through a tropical rain forest, an African desert complete with sandstorm, and the windswept plains
of a small, turn-of-the-century family farm. Guests
experience the struggles of the past and plans
for farming in the future including Hydroponics, Aeroponics and Aquaculture.
It's not just about fruits and veggies, fish farms are on display.
FUN FACT: If you are enjoying fresh vegetables or fish at an Epcot restaurant, it's likely that they were grown right here.
The educational content on this ride is geared more towards adults, but younger guests will love the boat ride and spotting the different fruits and vegetables.
