Disney revealed some of the locations guests will “visit” on Soarin’ Across America, opening this summer at Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort to honor America’s 250th anniversary.
Soarin’ Across America Locations
In flight, you will soar above sweeping coastlines, vibrant cityscapes, and awe-inspiring natural landscapes when Soarin’ Across America begins May 26, 2026, at Walt Disney World Resort and July 2, 2026, at Disneyland Resort.
Along your journey, you will glide above iconic urban and natural wonders, from the rugged New England coastline and the radiant welcome of New York Harbor to the vast expanse of Grand Canyon West.
The experience features so many quintessentially American settings… the autumn colors of the heartland; the beauty of our bayous; the great plains of the west; the northern wilderness; and sunlit island shores.
“Each scene helps to create a portrait of what we believe makes America so special,” said Tom Fitzgerald, creative director and chief storytelling executive, Walt Disney Imagineering. “It’s a tapestry of urban wonders, natural beauty, and iconic locations that celebrate the spirit of the nation and the 250th anniversary of the United States.”
A new musical arrangement by Bruce Broughton of the beloved Jerry Goldsmith Soarin’ themes underscores the adventure. Ride programming, wind, and more add to create a truly immersive experience.
While you await boarding at Walt Disney World, put your knowledge of the United States to the test with an all-new trivia challenge. The Soarin’ Challenge Across America — created in collaboration with National Geographic — invites guests to discover which state is “Most Likely to Reach for the Stars,” “Most Likely to Lend an Ear,” and “Most Likely to Strike Gold.” Featuring fun facts from beloved National Geographic titles including 50 States, 5,000 Ideas and stunning photography from the National Geographic archives, the challenge transforms the queue at EPCOT into a celebration of American wonder.
In honor of America’s 250th anniversary, The Walt Disney Company is commemorating this milestone with “Disney Celebrates America,” a company-wide initiative spanning programming, storytelling, and experiences across its iconic brands and businesses.
