Closed
From 2007 to 2018 the space was used for special events; attractions within have remained closed and partially removed. Wonders of Life was intended to be replaced by the PLAY! Pavilion in 2021, however this project was later canceled.
The concept of the building was to take visitors under the ocean to 'Sea Base Alpha'. They would then disembark into the main exhibit area where they could interact with various multimedia displays.
It was changed dramatically after the 2006 rehab. The queue, Hydrolators, The Seas film and Seacab ride were removed for a theme based on Finding Nemo, and the attraction renamed The Seas with Nemo & Friends, which became part of The Seas Pavilion in World Nature.
Guests visiting the pavilion were advised that "If we can dream it, we can do it." Featuring a series of scenes incorporating Audio-Animatronics figures in futuristic endeavors and its vision of how the future might develop technologically
The pavilion housed various attractions, the centerpiece being Journey into Imagination, an Audio-Animatronics ride that taught you about your imagination and how to use it.
The original attraction featured numerous films that presented information on the subject of energy in a serious fashion as well as a ride through a primeval diorama complete with animatronic dinosaurs.

The pavilion served as EPCOT Center's version of Main Street, U.S.A., as it brought together nearly all of the sponsors in the surrounding pavilions under one roof to serve as a supplemental experience to the overall visit to Future World.
The pavilions reopened as Innoventions in 1994 when all new exhibits were installed. The east side currently houses the Creations Shop, Club Cool, Connections Café, and Connections Eatery in World Celebration. The west side was demolished in 2019 to make space for CommuniCore Plaza and CommuniCore Hall in World Celebration, as well as Journey of Water in World Nature.
It explored how humans can both use the land for their benefit, and how they can also destroy it. Future Technology in better preserving the land was also explored in the pavilion, along with a focus on the celebration of the land itself.

Although the building and the focus has largely stayed the same, the initial attractions with the exception of Living with the Land were all removed by 1995 (in World Nature).

This version of the ride removed Dreamfinder and downplayed Figment's role. The ride was more closely tied to the film Honey, I Shrunk the Audience! (which played in the pavilion's Magic Eye Theater), by re-theming the ride as a trip to the Imagination Institute and casting Eric Idle as his character from the 3D film. Reception of this version of the ride was highly negative, and after only 2 years of operation, the attraction closed for another refurbishment.
The centerpiece of Disney's Millennium Celebration. The 60,000-square-foot (5,600 m2) pavilion opened up its doors to the public on October 1, 1999, and was closed down on January 1, 2001. It is, however, used on occasion. Along with the Odyssey Restaurant, the Millennium Village (now named "World ShowPlace") is used in the Epcot Food and Wine Festival.
Splashtacular (1993–1994) - A show that debuted in 1993 and included the Fountain of Nations and ended a few months later.

It also would cause the walkways to get very crowded, making it hard for people to get through.
