The story
The American Adventure is the host pavilion of the World Showcase area of EPCOT at the Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando, Florida. It is also the name of the pavilion's main attraction, an Audio-Animatronic stage show of American history. It is located between the Italy and Japan pavilions. The pavilion includes the Liberty Theater (home of the stage show), an exhibition space called the American Heritage Gallery, the America Gardens Theatre live entertainment venue, and a quick service food location named Regal Eagle Smokehouse—a Muppet-themed barbecue restaurant. Additionally, there is a merchandise location that houses the former Art of Disney store that was located in Future World.
