  • Antarctica Empire of the Penguin opened on May 24th, 2013, as SeaWorld Orlando's largest expansion in park history. The expansive realm opened with a new restaurant, retail location, penguin exhibit, and an all-new ride. Ten years later, the marquee attraction of the realm is closed forever. So what happened to SeaWorld's Antarctica Empire of the Penguin?

    This music makes me sad cause all the memories I had with this ride really miss it:(

    I really miss this ride it's the one of the only things I did in the park cause I'm not a big coaster fan so this ride really means a lot to now there's not a lot of things to do with family's and I don't see point of going anymore unless we get free tickets

    Current ambassador here. My ASUP told that it’s getting replaced with another attraction. My guess is another coaster. You can see construction behind Antarctica or if you walk the path behind Kraken to Pacific Point Preserve.

    I rode this 10 years ago and remember it broke down 3 or 4 times while my roommate and I were in line. The ride was just ok. Other parks have since used the trackless system and themed their rides far better. Those who didn't get to ride, you didn't miss much.

    Im glad you used the source audio I provided thats the area music also user on Emperor at another SeaWorld Park if Im correct, I may never got a chance to ride this thing but I rode a couple trackless dark rides in a similar style that are a bit more forceful than this but with lifelike props and animatronics, both at Disneyland Park.

      It was me who provided the audio since this is the only one avaliable on UA-cam, recorded from Emperor in a different SeaWorld Park but surprisingly clean barely any coaster sound effects.

    I never will be sad about another roller coaster being added to a theme park. SeaWorld does need a dark ride though. Something to beat the heat that's not a show or a water ride

    I’m assuming it’s the same for wild arctic too? Doesn’t seem to be returning soon.

      Yea basically every non coaster or raft family attraction at SWO (excluding Sesame Street) got closed after Covid. Turtle trek 3D, Empire Of The Penguin, and Wild Arctic are basically just themed animal attractions now it makes me sad especially with Turtle Trek since that area of the park is dead now. 😢
