Are you ready to get your fill of thrills from Disney World rides in 2024?

There are quite a few rides and attractions to choose from at Disney World, and it feels like the number continues to grow! Thinking about that and since it’s the new year, we figured we could at what will be the most popular rides at Disney World in 2024!

When we think about the rides that are going to be the most popular at Disney World, our minds immediately go to the newest ones. So, here are a couple that are opening in the next few months:

New Rides and Attractions

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure

The excitement around this new ride is unreal and that’s why it’s the first on this list! This new ride themed to Disney’s animated film The Princess and the Frog is called Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and is set to take visitors through the bayous of Louisiana to help Tiana with her new endeavor, Tiana’s Foods.

This ride will pick up the moment after The Princess and The Frog ends and we will “join Princess Tiana and Louis on a musical adventure – featuring some of the powerful music from the film – as they prepare for their first-ever Mardi Gras performance.” Tiana opens Tiana’s Palace and requires the riders’ help finding a missing key ingredient for the Mardi Gras party she’s throwing for the people of New Orleans. We’re going to be seeing old and new characters, hearing familiar and new songs, and embarking on a whole new adventure with Tiana! It’s set to open in 2024.

Country Bear Jamboree

A new show is coming to Country Bear Jamboree in Magic Kingdom, and the beloved bears will be learning an all-new act — they’ll sing their usual songs in new styles like country, rockabilly, and bluegrass.

Country Bear Musical Jamboree will be a take on the classic variety shows found in Nashville, Tennessee, and Nashville musicians are involved in the new arrangements. For instance. we’ll be hearing a new version of “Bare Necessities” in a rockabilly style! A Disney Imagineer has shared, “The music is going to be amazing, and the show will still have the fun and friendly tone that we all love about the Country Bears.”

The Little Mermaid Show

The new show will be called “The Little Mermaid — A Musical Adventure” and is coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Fall 2024 and will be a “fully reimagined theatrical production inspired by the Walt Disney Animation Studios classic” of the same name. So, this show will be all about the original and not the live-action remake.

We’re still on the lookout for more details about this new show, and we’re excited to experience it when it opens.

Star Tours

During Star Wars Celebration Europe in April 2023, Disney announced that Disney Parks’ Star Tours attraction would be getting a HUGE upgrade. This ride has been updated over the years as new Star Wars movies have come out, but we’re now getting some new scenes that will feature a Star Wars TV show. Yes, Ahsoka will be a part of Star Tours at Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, and Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

You’ll be able to ride this new version of Star Tours very soon as the new scenes will be added to the ride in Spring 2024.

New Zootopia Attraction in Animal Kingdom

Disney announced during Destination D23 on Saturday, September 9th, that Zootopia will, in fact, be coming to Disney’s Animal Kingdom as a new show attraction. We’re also led to believe that this may mean that It’s Tough To Be A Bug will be closing its doors to make way for the upcoming show under the Tree of Life.

We also learned that Disney’s current concept for the new Zootopia experience will take guests through the different biomes you only glimpse in the movie, traveling along with Judy Hopps, Nick Wilde, and other characters. We’re still waiting for more info and solid dates, but if this opens up in 2024, it will definitely be popular!

But wait, they don’t all have to be brand-new rides, right? Right! There are a lot of other rides that are already in Disney World that will still be pulling some massive crowds, so let’s go over a couple:

Existing Rides and Attractions:

TRON Lightcycle / Run

As the newest ride currently at Disney World, this one tops the list. It will have you climbing aboard your very own Lightcycle and taking off on a high-speed adventure on the Grid!

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind

This one’s pretty straightforward: Take off on an intergalactic chase with the Guardians of the Galaxy. Who wouldn’t want to do that?! Multiple times!

Avatar Flight of Passage

Getting to climb atop a winged mountain banshee and fly all over Pandora’s breathtaking landscape makes this ride incredibly popular. It feels like we’re constantly seeing wait times for this top 150 minutes on the regular.

Slinky Dog Dash

This one is such a blast and never fails to slap a smile on your face. It will definitely be one of the most popular rides at Disney’s Hollywood Studios all year long. Besides, being a toy in Toy Story Land is always a dream come true.

Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith

It’s currently closed for refurbishment, but trust us when the refurb is done, it’s going to be a very popular ride to get on. I mean, who wouldn’t want to get into super-stretch limo, do some loops and inversions all while rocking out to your favorite Aerosmith hits?!
