We just got some important news about Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Disneyland Park!

The new ride is opening at Disneyland Park on November 15th, 2024, and we just got confirmation on how guests will be able to experience this new attraction.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Disneyland will be opening with a virtual queue in place. Just like in Disney World, the ride will be utilizing a virtual queue to manage demand. Additionally, we found out that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will be available as a selection through the Lightning Lane Multi Pass Service.

Disney announced that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will have a virtual queue when it opens in Disneyland Park. This has become Disney’s go-to strategy for managing demand for popular rides. There are currently two other virtual queues being utilized at Disneyland Resort. Haunted Mansion Holiday in Disneyland Park and World of Color — ONE in Disney California Adventure Park both utilize a virtual queue.

You can join the virtual queue for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at 7AM, 12PM, or 4PM (yep, you get three shots at it) on the Disneyland app.  Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will NOT have a standby line when it first opens. Your only two options to ride will be to get into the virtual queue or make a selection for the ride with the Lightning Lane Multi Pass service. The ride will be a selection through Lightning Lane Multi Pass, not an a la carte selection through the Lightning Lane Single Pass service. 

The virtual queue for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is accessible via the Disneyland app.  The queue will open at 7AM each morning and again at 12PM and 4PM later that day. You do NOT have to be in Disneyland Park to join the 7AM one, but you DO have to have scanned into the park to join the 12PM and 4PM queues. To join, open the app to the homepage and locate the virtual queue section.

On the app, after you’ve selected your desired attraction in the appropriate park, under “Join Virtual Queue,” you’ll find a button that says “Confirm Your Party.” Once you hit that button, the app will find the people who are linked to your account. You’ll select each person that you want to add to your party, and choose “Confirm Party.” Then you will want refresh and select “Join Virtual Queue” to join the queue right at 7AM, 12PM, or 4PM. Note that virtual queues open at exactly those times, and they can fill up within SECONDS, so you really want to be ready exactly on time. If you’re in the app before 7AM hits, you may need to refresh your screen at 7AM.

If you’re successful in joining the queue, you will receive a boarding group. Disney calls boarding groups back in sections, and once your group is called back, you’ll receive a notification from the Disneyland app telling you to head back to Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. You’ll have one hour to return once your group is called. The app will give you an idea of when your boarding group may be called back, but the estimated time is likely to change.

We can’t wait to take a ride on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Disneyland Park when it opens on November 15th! Make sure you are prepared by making a Lightning Lane Multi Pass selection for the ride or joining the virtual queue in the Disneyland app. Stay tuned to DFB for all your Disneyland news!
