Innoventions reviews

Theme Park Insider readers offer their ratings and reviews for Innoventions, a walk through in Tomorrowland at Disneyland.

This is an interactive area in Tomorrowland designed to showcase the newest technology available now, as well as what's in store for the future. This building (the Carousel Theater) was originally the Carousel of Progress from 1967 to 1973. This eventually became America Sings, running from 1974 to 1988. Its current attraction has been around since 1998 as part of the "New Tomorrowland" theme. The Carousel Theater has an outer ring that rotates, changing what is presented to guests as they enter, and an inner ring where the majority of the attraction is presented.

Within these walls is a collection of technological advances that range from communications, entertainment, health, and many other categories.

This attraction has heavy emphasis on "high tech-high touch" as almost everything is hands-on.

Featured here is ASIMO, Honda's state-of-the-art robot.

Better than most of Epcot's Innoventions, it could use a little bit of an update. The spinning floor and house of the future rock. Only if COP in WDW had a nifty building like this. - Skipper Adam

I am not sure if others have outdated reviews, but this attraction was better than its EPCOT cousin! I love the spinning idea and the House of Innoventions was fantastic! - Anthony Murphy

Not as bad as everyone else makes it out to be. Technology is rapidly changing everyday and I think people are getting jaded by what's "new". It may not be the best attraction at Disneyland, but it's fun seeing and interacting with stuff that basically would be fun to play with, but not worth buying unless money wasn't a problem. There's also things that will be standard in the future, but is too new to mass produce. This attraction isn't my first choice, but it's a good place to relax and explore. - Brandon Mendoza

Not as bad as I remember it from past years. If you don't frequently visit the park skip it because you will find it boring and time consuming. Yet if you have a annual pass, see it and take your time. The house of the future on the first floor is pretty cool. Have the castmembers explain and show you all the features in each room. Upstairs, Asimo is awesome but they need to add another really nice hands-on exibit(it just needs something). - Erik Avila

Keep in mind, once in the "loading area", there's no easy way to escape this time sink. If you get onto the spinning platform- you're basically stuck (unless there's an emergency). And yes, this attraction does suck. - Charles Gilman

OKay i am orry for u haters but this place is pretty hackin awesome a&& its air conditioned! - Arianna Biffle

An o.k. spot to chill and relax. The biggest attraction in here is the air conditioning. The last time I went in here there was a lot of xbox systems and people playing them, including Guitar Hero. There is also a health section where you get to check your body mass and other similar things. If you feel like playing video games while in Disneyland than this is the place. - Manny Barron
