It is located inside a golden colored dome between [[Mission: SPACE]] (formerly [[Horizons (Epcot)|Horizons]]) and [[Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind]] (formerly [[Universe of Energy]]). It opened on October 19, 1989,<ref>{{cite news |last=Fickley-Baker |first=Jennifer |date=September 17, 2012 |title=Epcot Photo Flashback: From the Cranium Command Control Room |url=https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2012/09/epcot-photo-flashback-from-the-cranium-command-control-room/ |access-date=December 30, 2018 }}</ref> and closed on January 1, 2007.<ref name="WOLHistory" /> From 2007 to 2018, the Pavilion acted as EPCOT's Festival Center, before becoming a construction site in March 2019 in preparation for the upcoming [[Play!]] pavilion to replace it.
 
The original attractions within the building have been closed and partially removed. In February 2019, it was announced that a new [[Play!]] pavilion would be built in the domed [[show building]] formerly occupied by Wonders of Life, and was originally scheduled to open in time for Walt Disney World's 50th anniversary in 2021, but due to the park's temporary closure during the [[COVID-19 pandemic]], the pavilion's opening date was delayed indefinitely. Itbut is now set to open in late 2024.
