After more than a year since the iconic Splash Mountain at Walt Disney World closed for a re-theme, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, its replacement, opened on June 28, 2024!

Alongside that, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at Disneyland California is slated to open on November 15, 2024.

Fans can “Drop on in” and enjoy the thrill of the 5-story log flume drop ride but with new Audio-Animatronics figures, music, and more from the iconic “The Princess and the Frog” movie.

Let’s take a look at what we know so far…

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure

Disney officially opened Tiana’s Bayou Aventure on June 28, 2024, at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida— months earlier than originally expected.

The ride will open at Disneyland in California on November 15, 2024.

The re-theming of Splash Mountain is complete, with Tiana and friends from “The Princess and the Frog” celebrating how she made her dreams come true during Mardi Gras season.

There are dozens of next-level Audio-Animatronics and, of course, plenty of classic jazz and zydeco music from The Big Easy. Oh, and the smell of Tiana’s beignets wafting through the ride as well!

And thrill-seekers, fear not. The iconic 50-foot drop, with views of Magic Kingdom and ending in a pool of cool water, is not to be missed.
