Spaceship Earth Lounge Construction Walls
Posted: Friday January 10, 2025 10:00am ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Construction walls are now in place alongside Spaceship Earth's Project Tomorrow post-show area as work progresses on the entrance to the upcoming Spaceship Earth Lounge. The construction zone is located on the side opposite Guest Relations.

Inside Project Tomorrow—the post-show experience at Spaceship Earth—the usual exit pathway is blocked. All guests exiting the attraction must now use the side leading toward the World Nature neighborhood.

Disney has announced that the new lounge, inspired by the iconic design of Spaceship Earth, will open its doors in late spring 2025, just before summer. The lounge will occupy the former corporate lounge space that overlooks the World Celebration area.

The design of the new lounge will reflect the geometric sphere's inspiration, featuring rich textures and warm metallic tones. Disney describes the space as a relaxing area for families to gather and enjoy refreshments, with an ambiance aimed at providing a blend of mystery and elegance.

I understand the urinal pucks in the men's restroom will smell like Rome-on-fire when peed upon. Only one way to know...

They'll undoubtedly paint the inside to resemble the Alucobond tiles on SSE. Synergy!!!

Absolutely true. This is the inspiration received straight from the EPCOT Coloring Book. (Appropriate for Ages 2-10)

Consultants need not ride the attraction because "books make it easier to invent the future in every field." They can just read about it.

Great to see the Gensler Lounge is taking shape nicely. Too bad they couldn't find any inspiration from inside SSE to gussy up the lounge a tad. But I'm sure the consultants working on the design have never even set foot inside SSE.

The best they can do is an 8oz bottle of water and a 1oz bag of pretzels. Anything more would harm the bottom line.

It’ll be interesting to see if the next version of SSE gets a sponsor. That company’s employees wouldn’t have a private lounge to enjoy, but maybe a front of the line pass to this one?

I've seen more places in the $10 million+ range than under it for sale, but I wasn't 100% sure if that was only because the bigger houses were on the market more often.

Yes but then there are HOA fees, mandatory purchases, Mickey mouse surcharges and fee fees.........

I believe the new Ft Wilderness DVC Camping Area will come in at just under that amount... (not including closing costs, enhanced experiences, and annual dues).

Can I set up my tent for $1.5m?

One listed now for 6M - 3184 sq ft other one is 14.5M.....
