Disney4me Posted November 1 Report Share Posted November 1 Get ready to “drop on in!” Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will make its highly anticipated debut at Disneyland Resort on November 15, 2024! If you’re planning a visit to experience this fun, family-friendly attraction, here is a roundup of important things to know, helpful tips and answers to some common questions. A memorable first thrill ride for kids Located in the newly renamed Bayou Country in Disneyland park, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is a whimsical water ride that’s fun for the family! Along the way, you’ll encounter Princess Tiana, Mama Odie, gator pal Louis and many adorable new critters. The ensemble of familiar and new friends – plus a lighthearted story and catchy music throughout – create the recipe for a fun first “big kid ride.” Parties with guests that do not meet the minimum 40-inch height requirement can ask a cast member about the complimentary Rider Switch feature, which allows adult guests to take turns experiencing the attraction. More details are available at Disneyland.com. The storytelling starts before you board The attraction’s story picks up after the events of the Walt Disney Animation Studios film “The Princess and the Frog,” as Tiana is preparing to host a one-of-a-kind celebration during Mardi Gras season honoring her employee-owned business, Tiana’s Foods. On the ride, you’ll join her search for the party’s missing ingredient: the band! But keep an eye out – you’re immersed in the story upon stepping into the queue. Inside the queue, you’ll find mementos of Tiana and her family’s culinary prowess, including newspaper clippings detailing Tiana’s story and the family gumbo recipe. The Tiana’s Foods truck located outside the attraction is missing a license plate, which is being used by a critter as a musical instrument. You may get wet! You’ll board a log flume that twists, turns and splashes through the bayou before culminating to a thrilling 50-foot drop. For any items you wish to protect from getting wet, consider placing them in a locker rental on Main Street, U.S.A., leaving them with a non-riding member of your party or placing them in a resealable plastic bag prior to boarding. Waterproof ponchos are available for purchase at various retail locations across Disneyland park. You can also find a Tiana’s Bayou Adventure-themed waterproof phone pouch and souvenir towel available for purchase at Louis’ Critter Club in Bayou Country. How to experience Tiana’s Bayou Adventure when it opens Upon its grand opening, joining the complimentary virtual queue,* accessible only via the Disneyland app,** is required to experience Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. A standby queue will not be available during the attraction’s initial opening days. The virtual queue enrollment times will be twice daily, at 7 a.m. and 12 p.m. PT. More information and how-to details on the virtual queue system is available at Disneyland.com.

Where to find beignets – plus, delicious dining recommendations The sweet scent of beignets in the attraction queue may have your mouth watering!

You can also find gumbo (including a plant-based option!), a Muffuletta salad and other New Orleans-inspired fare. Classic Mickey Mouse-shaped beignets are available at the adjacent Mint Julep Bar.
