🚨Water Is FINALLY Flowing at Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom🚨

We’ve been impatiently watching construction on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom for what feels like forever.

Okay, it’s only technically been about a year, but we’ve enjoyed watching progress on the new ride, like seeing the water tower going up and seeing all the new additions being added regularly. Well, on February 18th, we saw something HUGE happening on the ride, and we have to share it with you: WATER is flowing through Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. WATER, PEOPLE!!!

Those familiar with Splash Mountain, the ride that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure replaced, know that the ride is a log flume ride, which means you need water to move the logs (filled with people) through the attraction. This basic design remains the same for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, but this is the first time we’ve seen the ride filled with water. This could indicate that Disney is preparing to start testing the ride.

 

We recently got an update that the ride is set to open EARLY in Disney World (this summer!), so we already know we’re pretty close to the opening date. Summer isn’t that far away, folks!

Check it out!

The ride will pick up the story after Tiana’s adventures in The Princess and the Frog, during New Orleans’ Carnival season (party!), and Tiana is hosting a Mardi Gras Party. The party is missing a “key ingredient,” though, so we are going to be asked to take a trip through the Bayou to find it.

We recently got a look at the Tiana animatronic we’ll see at the beginning of the ride, and um…WOW! She looks amazing.

Of course, music will also be a big part of the ride, with original music “inspired by songs from the film.” Many of the original voice actors from the film have also offered their voices for the ride, including Bruno Campos as Prince Naveen, Michael Leon Wooley as Louis, Jennifer Lewis as Mama Odie, and, of course, Anika Noni Rose as Princess Tiana.
