What this episode covers

This week on Soarin’ Around WDW, we’re diving back into our Parks of the Future series with a truly epic armchair imagineering session, and we’re not doing it alone. Joining us are our favorite creative minds from the Idiot’s Guide to Imagineering: Stephen and Marissa!Together, we set our sights on EPCOT’s World Showcase and tackle one of the biggest “what ifs” in Disney history: adding a brand-new pavilion. After exploring the history, lost concepts, and untapped potential of World Showcase, we reveal our bold country of choice, and begin building it from the ground up.In this first installment, we focus on the headlining attraction: Fire of the Aegean, a thrilling, multi-launch coaster that plunges guests into the heart of a volcanic eruption inspired by the real-life history of Santorini. Blending high-intensity thrills with classic EPCOT-style education, this non-IP experience explores geology, culture, and the raw power of nature in a way Disney has never done before.We also debate the future of non-IP attractions, reflect on the legacy of EPCOT’s storytelling (including Illuminations: Reflections of Earth), and get inspired by travel dreams and global cultures along the way.So, would you brave the eruption? And is there still room in EPCOT for original, educational attractions like this?Next week, we bring the full pavilion to life with dining, entertainment, and a heroic twist you won’t want to miss.
