What happened to Innoventions?

[Tiki Birdland]

Came at EMM this morning to EPCOT. What happened to Innoventions? Only two things here are Coker topiary and Take a Nanobreak. Is there nothing in our future to celebrate?

I remember the Segway on our last visit. I think that's Mickey Mouse tears filling the fountain out front...

Corporations don't see the need to spends thousands of dollars to sponsor booths at theme parks as a way to get their name out.

I understand that, in today's web society.

It's sad. We used it as an a/c spot last trip - let the kids play some video games, etc. We were the only ones in there for long stretches of time. Like an abandoned world. Shameful, really..

If you go into the innoventions building closest to Soarin, it's a great spot to sit with tables and chairs in cool A/C

I'd imagine when Epcot becomes the "priority park" for renovations we'll see something useful go in there--or maybe they'll be gone altogether???

that's not the Innoventions building. The Innoventions building closest to Soarin is home to Baymax and Joy and Sadness meet and greet. You are thinking about the Character Spot building

They could and should turn Innoventions (and any other unused pavilion) into the STEM version of WWOS, with robotics, invention and even occasional video game competitions.

If they can't imagine a future, they could at least sponsor it.

My kids really liked Innoventions. I'm sad to see it so empty.

What a great idea! There's so much going on that it would be tough for me to pick from. It would look like my garage... you couldn't move!

Yep you're right. I don't believe there's anything in the innoventions west building aside from Baymax and Joy/Sadness

We noticed that in March. The stench was brutal!

It was sad to see the building so empty. Our kids used to spend a lot of time in there but now it's like a ghost town.

Communicore has been a grave site for 20 years. They need to fire all the Imagineers. I'm afraid they might turn it into movie themes though instead of EPCOT themes.
