Expo 2031 Minnesota, USA Announcements Forthcoming
USA PAVILION VISION & PROGRAMMING UPDATE
“Expo 2031 Minnesota USA will welcome the world to discover how humanity and the living world
can flourish together to build the communities of the future.”

The USA Pavilion will present the vision “Where the American Dream Meets the Living World.”
Designed as both a national showcase and a global gathering place, the pavilion will invite visitors from around the world to explore the evolving story of the United States through immersive storytelling, living landscapes, innovation showcases, and cultural programming.
The pavilion will celebrate the enduring spirit of the American Dream of innovation, entrepreneurship, creativity, resilience, and community while demonstrating how human ingenuity and the natural world can flourish together in a regenerative future.
​
Inspired by Minnesota’s identity as “the land where the water reflects the skies,” the pavilion will be organized around three elemental forces: Land, Water, and Sky. Living gardens, reflective water landscapes, and open-sky architecture will create a setting where visitors experience the landscapes, ideas, and aspirations that define America.

"The greatest pavilions don't just show you a nation they let you step inside its story. The USA Pavilion at Expo 2031 will celebrate what makes the American Dream enduringly alive: the belief that innovation, nature, and human creativity can shape a better world together."
