Disney’s Epcot Welcomes the New Frozen Ever After: A Royal Journey in Orlando

Frozen fans rejoice—Disney’s Epcot has opened a brand‑new attraction in Orlando.

Queen Elsa, Princess Anna, and the lovable snowman Olaf now live in a stunning, Norway‑themed pavilion at Epcot® in the Walt Disney World® Resort. Guests can sail to Arendelle aboard the new Frozen Ever After attraction and meet the royal sisters in their recreated homes.

With a daily snow day experience, this latest attraction gives fans yet another reason to #LoveOrlando.

Fans can also meet Anna and Elsa at the Royal Summerhus—a cabin modeled after Trondheim’s historic architecture—where personalized photo opportunities are available.

Replacing the former Maelstrom dark ride, Frozen Ever After transports guests aboard longship‑inspired boats through immersive scenes populated by state‑of‑the‑art audio‑animatronics from the film.

These animatronics represent the most advanced all‑electric technology, delivering fluid movements and unprecedented realism.

Even the queue offers an adventure: guests pass through themed sets such as “Oaken’s Tokens,” where Oaken enjoys a sauna, greeting visitors with, “Whoo hoo, hello family!”

The gift shop showcases a fresh line of merchandise that embraces the film’s empowerment theme—stylish T‑shirts, toys, costumes, and ornaments await.
