Avatar : Explore Pandora [Shanghai Disneyland - 2022-2023]

Shanghai Disneyland proposera à partir du 22 septembre prochain une nouvelle exposition immersive pour une durée limitée : AVATAR : EXPLORE PANDORA.

Actuellement prévue jusqu'au mois de mars 2023, la nouvelle attraction temporaire prendra place dans le Tomorrowland Pavilion qui abritait autrefois l'exposition Star Wars Launch Bay (définitivement fermée en juin 2019 faute d'intérêt de la part du public local pour la franchise Star Wars).

Shanghai Disney Resort Proudly Presents AVATAR: EXPLORE PANDORA Limited-Time Immersive Exhibition at Shanghai Disneyland

Shanghai Disney Resort in collaboration with James Cameron and Jon Landau’s Lightstorm Entertainment and Disney Location-Based Experiences, announced today that AVATAR: EXPLORE PANDORA, an immersive exhibition inspired by the highest-grossing film of all time Avatar, will open in Shanghai Disneyland from September 22, 2022 to March 2023. This will be the first Avatar-themed touring exhibition to be hosted in a Disney Park worldwide.



Exhibiting for a limited six-month period in the futuristically designed setting of Tomorrowland, AVATAR: EXPLORE PANDORA will open to park guests from 10:00 to 17:00 each day during park operation hours, immersing guests in the world of Avatar.

The launch of the exhibit also coincides with the international premiere of the much-anticipated sequel Avatar: The Way of Water, which is scheduled for December 2022 globally and will extend the legendary story of this unique alien world.

AVATAR: EXPLORE PANDORA combines innovative storytelling and technology into a unique walkthrough exhibition. Guests of all ages will explore the fantastical alien moon of Pandora, the culture of its inhabitants, the Na’vi, and stunning bioluminescent environments. This 1,400-square-meter exhibition features life-sized recreations of iconic landmarks from the film, most notably the Tree of Voices. Standing at a towering six meters in height, this centerpiece is a glowing recreation of the movie’s sacred place of connection containing whispers from the ancestors of the Na’vi.



High-tech interactives including the Amplified Mobility Platform (AMP) suit simulator, as well as an opportunity to be “Avatarized” are exciting touchpoints for guests. The exhibition also offers exploration of the indigenous Na’vi culture, alongside sculpts of exotic creatures.



AVATAR: EXPLORE PANDORA includes a unique shopping experience featuring limited-time Avatar souvenirs at the Tomorrowland Pavilion Shop. The store features a selection of Avatar-themed souvenirs, such as the cute Na’vi plush, toys, collectible pin, and more. Here, guests can even select and adopt their very own Banshee creature.

Starting this September, AVATAR: EXPLORE PANDORA is set to be a wonderful addition to the park and a sensational destination for fans of Avatar and guests of all ages.

Hum peut être un prémice pour un futur land Avatar la bas ?
De mémoire ils avaient fait à peu près la même chose sur zootopie un an ou deux avant d'annoncer l'extension du même nom

C'est tellement évident qu'Avatar aurait dû être déjà construit à Shanghai Disneyland vu le succès du film en Chine.

Hmm, je ne vois pas de quoi tu parles, je vivais à Shanghai en 2016 et le film y est sorti quelques mois avant l'ouverture du Parc.
Les salles d'expo étaient alors dédiées à Star Wars et Marvel.
Quand le Land Zootopia a été annoncé pour le Parc, en janvier 2019, ces deux salles n'avaient pas été modifiées.
Ai-je loupé quelque chose ?

En tout ça sera surement un test ,si ça cartonne leur prochain grand ride pourrait bien être sur Avatar .

C'était pas dans ces salles mais il me semble bien que Shanghai avait organisé des évènements autour de l'animé vers 2017 car il était populaire dans cette région.
Je m'emmêle peut-être les pinceaux mais je suis presque sûr de mon coup.

L'exposition immersive Avatar : Explore Pandora est prolongée jusqu'au 24 juin prochain :
