Kraken
A terrifying monster of the deep has been let loose on Central Florida.
Kraken has emerged from the depths of the sea, breaking all records
as the newest, highest, fastest, longest and only floorless roller
coaster in Orlando – it even plunges “underwater!”
It will take you to the heights of a 15-story building and turn
you upside down seven times, all at speeds reaching 65 mph! Named
after a legendary sea monster, Kraken is a massive, mythological
underwater beast that’s unleashed from the depths of the sea to
take SeaWorld guests on the ride of their lives – lifting them higher,
dropping them longer and spiraling them faster than any other coaster
in Orlando. Riders’ feet dangle as they sit on open-air, pedestal-like
seats with nothing around them except shoulder restraints. There’s
no one to hold on to, nothing in front of them and nothing below
them – and only sky above.
54" height requirement.
Journey to Atlantis
Get ready for the ultimate adventure ride – Journey to Atlantis!
Travelling on water and high-speed rails, you’ll be chased by spirits
who want to keep Atlantis – and you – for their own! You'll never
know what's around the next corner or the next drop – even when
it's 60 feet, nearly straight down. Journey to Atlantis is the future
of theme park thrill rides. Combining the best parts of water rides
and roller coasters, and adding out-of-this-world special effects
have created the most unbelievable ride imaginable.
42" height requirement. Guests 42"-48" must be accompanied
by a responsible person.
Blue Horizons
Venture beyond the horizon in an experience that takes you into
a world of acrobatic dolphins and whales, soaring birds and leaping
water with a spirit all its own. Blue Horizons – an all-new
dolphin theatrical performance about the place where sea meets sky.
It could only happen at SeaWorld.
A young girl’s vivid imagination sets the stage for an extravaganza
of graceful dolphins, ominous false killer whales and a rainbow
of exotic birds including blue and gold macaws, Andean condors and
sun conures. In a show filled with action both above and under the
water, a cast of divers and aerialists – dressed in elaborate
costumes and symbolizing sea and sky – plunge off the elaborate
set into, and also propel out of, the deep blue water. “Blue
Horizons is truly unique as it seamlessly blends the amazing power
and grace of SeaWorld’s dolphins and false killer whales with
the lavish splendor of Broadway,” said Stanley Meyer, Blue
Horizons set designer and show consultant. Meyer is best known for
his work designing the critically acclaimed Broadway musical Beauty
and the Beast.
“Only SeaWorld could create such a spectacular concept, a
type of show that can be seen nowhere else in the world,”
said Meyer. “It creates a completely new benchmark of awe-inspiring
entertainment.”
Meyer is responsible for creating the theatrical set design for
Blue Horizons. Using elements of the sea and sky -- and a young
girl’s vivid imagination --- as his inspiration, Meyer designed
a whimsical, yet dramatic, atmosphere with an immense rising sun,
hundreds of iridescent bubbles, and an elaborate, 40-foot-high framework
which envelops the pool and balances divers and aerialists as they
plunge from bungees and soar on “cloud swings.” Relying
on the brilliant colors of the macaws and sun conures, renowned
costume designer, Tracy Christensen, is developing the elaborate
wardrobe to transform the aerialists and divers into characters
of sea and sky. Having previously worked on well-known productions
including Fiddler on the Roof and Beauty and the Beast, Christensen
is incorporating a variety of textures and fabrics never before
used in a SeaWorld show.
While these characters sway from “cloud swings” and
dive off the elaborate set, the true stars of the show grace the
waters below. SeaWorld’s dolphins and false killer whales
leap their way into this dreamy adventure with no apparent direction
from trainers. Twenty macaws, Andean condors and sun conures will
soar over the audience as they ascend toward the horizon.
Blue Horizons debuts to a stirring, original musical score performed
by the Seattle Symphony Orchestra.
Believe
“Believe” is a revolutionary production that features SeaWorld’s entire family of majestic killer whales performing awe-inspiring choreography with an original musical score performed by Prague National Symphony Orchestra. The elaborate 3-story set features an 80-foot-wide whale tail designed exclusively for this show as well as four rotating panoramic LED screens and nearly 100 speakers.
“Shamu Rocks” kicks off Memorial Day 2008 and is a rock n’ roll concert of unprecedented proportions combining improvisational movements of killer whales with music remixed by some of the hottest rock stars in the industry including Savage Garden, Cold Play, Jennifer Lopez, Rascal Flats and Shakira.

Klondike and Snow!

chinstrap and rockhopper
