Walt Disney World sets grand opening for Splash Mountain replacement Tiana’s Bayou Adventure

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure opens June 28 at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida! The ride will take guests on a musical adventure picking up after the events of the Walt Disney Animation Studios film, “The Princess and the Frog.” Guests will encounter fan-favorite characters including Prince Naveen, Mama Odie and more, plus all-new music. Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, the latest thrill ride at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World in Florida, officially opens this summer.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure continues the story of “The Princess and the Frog,” the 2009 animated film that introduced the first Black Disney princess. The attraction is said to showcase dozens of new Audio-Animatronics figures including Princess Tiana, Prince Naveen, Mama Odie and Louis the Alligator, all voiced by the original actors.

The grand opening comes four years after Disney first announced that Splash Mountain would get a makeover and more than a year after the ride closed for good. The attraction, which debuted at Magic Kingdom in 1992, was based on “Song of the South,” a 1946 film that has been criticized for romanticizing life in the Antebellum South and locked in the studio’s vault for decades.

Suffice it to say that interest in the new version is high. So, don’t necessarily expect to be able to roll up to the Magic Kingdom later this summer and simply get in line. If recent history is any indication, the park seems likely to implement a virtual queue to prevent excruciatingly long waits.
