Although progress has continued at a snail’s pace on the TRON Lightcycle / Run site at the Magic Kingdom, we finally caught the canopy itself lit up for the very first time — with the hexagonal patterns on the inside lit up for testing.

Only a few of the light patterns were under testing early in the evening, with one hexagonal pattern lit up entirely.

Once evening set in, we could spot more full hexagonal patterns along with dots of white light at intersection points of the canopy support.

The patterns will help create a stunning light presentation for guests both on the attraction and waiting for it in the evening.

While we still have no idea when exactly TRON Lightcycle / Run will open to guests at the Magic Kingdom, we’ve been keeping a close eye on construction since it began five years ago. Rumors point to a possible opening as late as 2023.

Are you excited to ride TRON Lightcycle / Run when it finally opens? Let us know in the comments below!
