We previously announced that a new Guardians of the Galaxy themed attraction would be coming to Epcot at Walt Disney World.  The new attraction is expected to be one of the world’s longest enclosed roller coasters.  The new building where the roller coaster will be housed is right next to the existing Universe of Energy building.  In order to create the foundation at the new location, there were 960 trucks of concrete that were poured!  The attraction will be inspired by the Guardians of the Galaxy films and be based on a story line that will be developed by Walt Disney Imagineering with input from the makers of the films.

Here is a look at the video released by Disney Parks Blog:

This new roller coaster attraction is set to open in time for Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary celebration.  If you are anxious for a little bit of Guardians of the Galaxy sooner than that, you will be able to check out the Guardians of the Galaxy – Awesome Mix Live at Epcot this summer as part of Walt Disney World’s Incredible Summer.  The event will take place at the America Gardens Theatre at the American Adventure pavilion within Epcot’s World Showcase.  It will be running five time a day from June 9th through August 19th.

We will post more updates on the amazing roller coaster attraction as soon as we have them?

Who else can’t wait for this amazing themed coaster to finally open?

About Christy Caby

I am a diehard Disney fanatic! I fell in love with all things Disney from an early age and that only increased once I first visited Walt Disney World! It led me to complete a yearlong Disney College Program working at merchandise locations within Disney’s Hollywood Studios (Disney-MGM Studios at that time) and I worked for Disney Parks & Resorts Technology in Project/Program Management. Now I get to write about Disney and help others plan their magical vacations! Disney holds a special place in the hearts of my entire family as my husband proposed there, we honeymooned there, took trips while pregnant with each of my boys and have visited with them many, many times from 8 weeks old through now. One of my favorite memories from each trip is always the look on my kids’ faces the first time they see the castle. I’d love to help you plan your magical vacation!
