Sivako! Disney Park guests that have braved “Avatar Flight of Passage” at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park know this phrase means, “rise to the challenge!” Since 2017, Pandora – The World of Avatar at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park has brought the wonder of James Cameron’s film “Avatar” to life each day. From delectable food at Satu’li Canteen, to adventurous attractions like “Avatar Flight of Passage” and “Na’vi River Journey,” Pandora – The World of Avatar is a must-see land at Walt Disney World Resort for all guests.
Pandora is home to the Na’vi, and now you can journey back to Pandora on the big screen and see it come alive in “Avatar: The Way of Water!”
Set more than a decade after the events of the first film, “Avatar: The Way of Water” begins to tell the story of the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri, and their kids), and the trouble that follows them, the lengths they go to keep each other safe, the battles they fight to stay alive, and the tragedies they endure. To celebrate the release of “Avatar: The Way of Water” in theaters now, see how you can “rise to the challenge” and participate in the festivities!
