REMINDER: NEW Magic Kingdom Ride is Opening Soon! Here’s What You Need to Know!

The day we’ve all been waiting for is ALMOST here!

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure

The grand opening of the highly anticipated attraction, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Disney World’s Magic Kingdom is less than a week away! And we’ve got a few important things you need to know in order to be prepared for the big day.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will be opening to all guests on June 28th and the hype is real for this new addition to the Magic Kingdom! Cast Member and Annual Passholder previews have been ongoing for the past few weeks and we’ve had a first look at the brand-new store, exclusive souvenirs, and themed snacks that will be available on opening day.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure!

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure takes place a year after the events of The Princess and the Frog. Tiana’s dream of opening up her very own restaurant has come true and she’s decided to host a Mardi Gras party for everyone in New Orleans in appreciation for all their support! However, during the big celebration, Tiana realizes that the party is “missing a key ingredient” and she needs to find it. That’s where YOU come in to help, and accompanied by Louis, the quest for the “missing ingredient” is on! What’s the missing ingredient exactly? The best band in the Bayou, that’s what!

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will be using a Virtual Queue on opening day, just like Tron Lightcycle/Run also at Magic Kingdom, and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind over at EPCOT.  This system will also be used after the opening date until Disney announces the switch to a standby queue, which they plan to do “soon after the attraction’s opening.” 

The virtual queue can be accessed through the My Disney Experience App where Guests have 2 daily opportunities to join — the first is at 7AM, and the second at 1PM. Guests requesting to join the virtual queue at 7AM do not have to be inside Magic Kingdom. If you’re trying to join the 1PM virtual queue, however, you have to be INSIDE Magic Kingdom.

The regular virtual queue will look similar to this Passholder version.

Along with being available with a Virtual Queue, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will also be available as an option on Disney Genie+. To ride, you can purchase Genie+ for Magic Kingdom (or get the multi-park Genie+ option) and reserve a Lightning Lane for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.

And just like ol’ Splash Mountain before it, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will feature an on-ride attraction photo! All riders can check out their photo and purchase them through Disney PhotoPass (via the My Disney Experience app) after riding down the Bayou. The photos are primarily captured when guests wear MagicBand or MagicBand+ while on the ride, but those that aren’t wearing one can find instructions for the on-ride photos posted at the attraction so that they don’t miss out on the fun!

And last but not least, on OPENING DAY ONLY (June 28th, 2024), guests may opt to purchase an EXCLUSIVE commemorative print package at Tiana’s Bayou General Store, located at the exit of the attraction. This will be sold in addition to the standard attraction photo prints.
