We’ve waited for what seems like FOREVER for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure to open at Disney World, and now, we’re ALMOST THERE. In June 2020, Disney announced that the water-based ride Splash Mountain would close to be rethemed into an attraction inspired by the Disney animated film, The Princess and the Frog. Disney has shared that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will pick up the story of The Princess and the Frog “after the final kiss, and 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.”
Sounds fun, right? Yes, so you can imagine how EXCITED we’ve all been about getting an official opening date. Previously, the ride was supposed to open in Fall 2024, but Disney shared earlier this year that it would open EARLIER — in the summer! Now, we have new updates! Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will officially open to all visitors on June 28th, 2024!
This is SUPER exciting, but the good news doesn’t end there. Disney also announced that Annual Passholder previews for the ride will be taking place on June 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and 20! There are some important details you need to know about these previews, so let’s get into the nitty-gritty.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom
Annual Passholders will need to make a park reservation at Magic Kingdom on one of the preview dates to have the opportunity to join the 7AM virtual queue — or, make a park reservation at any of the parks to have the opportunity to join the 1PM virtual queue.
On the date of your reservation, request to join the queue by using the My Disney Experience app like you would with TRON or Cosmic Rewind. There will be two opportunities to join each day of previews.
The 7AM virtual queue will be available to passholders with Magic Kingdom park reservations for the day, while the 1PM virtual queue will be available to passholders with reservations to any park that day. In either case, you must have a valid park reservation to one of the theme parks in order to join either of the virtual queues.
Passholders can also request to join a virtual queue no more than once per day, but, you will be able to hold virtual queues for previews of Tiana’s and TRON or Cosmic Rewind — if you’re lucky enough to snag both! Remember, passholders will need to enter the park in which they have a valid reservation first before going to Magic Kingdom — except for on June 13, 14, 17, 18, or 20 after 2PM
Also, keep in mind that requesting to join a virtual queue does not guarantee you a spot or preview of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure!
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
So, to recap:
Annual Passholder previews will take place on June 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and 20
Passholders will need a park reservation at Magic Kingdom to join the 7AM queue, or a park reservation at any other park to join the 1PM queue
Passholders will be able to hold a virtual queue boarding group for both Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and TRON or Cosmic Rewind if you can snag both
On June 13, 14, 17, 18, or 20 after 2PM, passholders will not need to enter the park they have a reservation for before going to Magic Kingdom
Requesting to join the virtual queue does not guarantee you a preview spot.

You might think we’re being sarcastic there, but seriously, the question of whether or not beignets would be available in Magic Kingdom once Tiana’s Bayou Adventure opens has been keeping us up at night. You CAN’T have a ride all about Tiana and NOT bring her famous beignets to the parks, right? Luckily, Disney agreed with us and now we have ALL the beignet details!
Disney has announced that Tiana’s Famous Beignetswill be available in Magic Kingdom starting on the opening day of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure (June 28th). The beignets will be served at Golden Oak Outpost and TheFriar’s Nook.
Based on the picture, it looks like these will be big, fluffy beignets coated in powdered sugar — just the way we like ’em. Disney said these are “light, sweet and fluffy beignets drizzled with honey and powdered sugar.”
Those other ones were more like little croissants than beignets. We’ll have to wait and try these out for ourselves when they arrive, though! You can bet we’ll be there to taste ’em as soon as they come out, and we’ll bring you a full review the same day.
The new Tiana’s Bayou Adventure ride will pick up the story of The Princess and the Frog “after the final kiss,” and visitors will get to “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.”
As Tiana is preparing for the big event, she realizes that she’s missing an important ingredient, so she needs our help to go on an adventure to find it! Could that ingredient be BEIGNETS? (Probably not, but we hope it is.)
We can’t wait to go down the bayou with Tiana and her friends. If you’re excited, too, make sure to check out our Tiana’s Bayou Adventure tee in our online DFB store!
