Today at ESSENCE Fest in New Orleans, Disney announced “Tiana’s Bayou Adventure” the new name for the reimagining of Splash Mountain at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World. The new take on this classic ride will bring guests into the world of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ film “The Princess and the Frog” like never before and will open in late 2024.
Walt Disney Imagineering has been hard at work by researching in Louisiana and New Orleans to make sure this new attraction is authentic. Imagineers have been exploring the French Market and the bayou, consulting with academics, chefs, musicians and cultural institutions. Imagineers have received inspiration from all over the region and learned from local experts along the way.
This reimagining was first announced in 2020, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will take guests on a musical adventure inspired by the beloved story and characters from the fan-favorite film. Picking up where the film left off, guests will join Princess Tiana, Naveen and jazz-loving alligator Louis on an adventure through the bayou as they prepare to host a one-of-a-kind Mardi Gras celebration where everyone is welcome. Along the way, guests will encounter familiar faces, make new friends and travel through the bayou to original music inspired by songs from the film as they are brought into the next chapter of Tiana’s story.
