SeaWorld Orlando announced today that Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin is set to open on May 24th of this year... As per the press release:



Construction is on-schedule at SeaWorld Orlando’s new attraction,Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin (http://seaworldparks.com/en/seaworld-orlando/Antarctica), and the park has announced May 24 as its grand opening date.

Brian Morrow, senior director of attraction development and design, answers questions from media when they visited the site today for the first time to check out Antarctica's progress.

Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin – sure to be Orlando’s must-see new attraction- will transport families into a rarely seen, icy world. They’ll feel the majestic grandeur of the South Pole and see it through the penguins’ eyes on an exhilarating, first-of-its-kind family ride.

They’ll explore a massive penguin colony in an expanse that envelops them in cool extremes, both above and below the penguins’ icy world. It’s a must-see, one-of-a-kind theme park experience only at SeaWorld (http://seaworldparks.com/seaworld-orlando) in Orlando. The ride will be trackless... The rock work looks amazing... I'm very much interested in seeing this new, state of the art attraction in Orlando...
