I like that they are keeping it a secret till revealing. Disney would be much better off doing more of this.
I agree with you but the fact that they haven’t announced anything for this space makes me believe it won’t be anything too exciting. Why announce the Spaceship Earth Lounge so far in advance and crickets on this space? Even DVC lounges have been announced pretty far in advance. Im afraid it will only be a DVC sales office at this point. Missed opportunity on a unique location. I would love to be wrong especially since I know the plan pre-Covid was to turn this space into a bar/lounge.

I’m thinking we’re getting something like this


I’m scared to see how they theme the inside, it was a beautiful space before they gutted it, hopefully it’s themed to its location

So we may be getting a giant empty roon with three chairs and a couple benches....that is just a sales office for DVC? Boo if that is true....
Now a Unibroue Brewery Tasting Room would be spectacular and beautifully fit the Canadian theme.

Jumping into this thread late, but earlier, people were mentioning attractions that would fit into the Canada pavilion. Well, it just so happens that, for years, at Ontario Place on the waterfront near downtown Toronto, there was a log flume ride called the Wilderness Adventure Ride. It might be a good template for a log flume attraction for the Canada pavilion, if they had the space for it.

it would be really hard to add a ride to canada due to space but anything is doable. Id rather they put a ride or two in the south eastern quadrant though, (germany/china pavilions area) cause there are no rides in that area of the park

Sadly, space is at a premium. I did always think that hybrid flume/screen/simulator idea Disney had would be a natural fit here. Canadian Rocky River Adventure or something like that. It wouldn't have an IP, so I doubt it would get the green light. But, it would be a cool way to utilize the small expansion area behind the pavilion (though would sadly mean the theater would become the queue).

For reference, you could probably squeeze in a building about half the size of Remy's show building or one Soarin' theater without too much disruption backstage.

That’s what I’m hearing too but also featuring some sort of food component which I find confusing

Not saying this is what you are saying - but I've always been surprised they didn't use DVC as a host for food venues more. I get the desire for DVC "perks". But, having a food venue (especially an adult food venue) that could be hosted by DVC or Adventures by Disney would seem to be even better advertising than a tucked away lounge. Plus build more goodwill to the brand for future prospects. The lounge spaces as they are fine, but typically a little underwhelming from those I've been in. I would think a well themed revenue generating location with free advertising (and a desk, of course) would kill more birds with the stone.

This sounds along the lines of what I have pieced together but don’t know for sure
