Sloth World, the World’s First “Slotharium,” Opening on International Drive in Early 2026
Move over thrill rides, because Orlando is about to get very chill. A brand-new wildlife attraction called Sloth World is set to open on International Drive in February 2026, and it’s bringing something the world has never seen before: the first and only Slotharium.

Sloth World breaks away from traditional animal exhibits entirely. Instead of cages, enclosures, or viewing windows, guests step right into a rainforest-style habitat where more than 40 sloths roam, climb, snack, and snooze among lush trees, hanging vines, and natural climbing structures. This serene, open-air environment is designed around one priority above all else: the sloths’ comfort.
Located at 6582 International Drive, the 7,500-square-foot space includes multiple species of sloths, including babies born on site. Small-group guided tours, capped for a calm and intimate feel, are led by Sloth World Ambassadors—animal science professionals specializing in sloth behavior. The experience is intentionally hands-off and education-focused, giving guests the incredibly rare chance to observe natural sloth behaviors up close without disrupting them.

Vice President Pete Bandre described the concept perfectly: “We want guests to feel like they’ve stepped into the sloths’ world—not the other way around.” The goal is not just enchantment, but education—helping guests understand how sloths live, why their slow-paced lifestyle plays a vital role in their ecosystems, and what conservation efforts are needed to protect them worldwide.
Sloth World will be open 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, holidays included, with tickets priced at $49. Presales have already begun, and early tours are expected to sell out months ahead of opening.
