Tiana’s Bayou Adventure

While Tiana’s Bayou Adventure opened in Disney World over the summer, Disneyland’s version of the ride opened today! With the opening of this attraction, Bayou Country, which was re-imagined from Critter Country, is also officially complete! We are here on opening day, and we were surprised by the crowd levels in Bayou Country on this attraction’s opening day.

Just like in Disney World, to manage lines at this new attraction, you must obtain a Virtual Queue or purchase a Lightning Lane Multi Pass to ride for the time being. There is no standby line.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Testing

The good news is that you get THREE chances a day to obtain a Virtual Queue, unlike Disney World. At Disneyland, you can enter the queue from outside the park at 7AM. Then you can try again inside the park at both 1PM and 4PM.

Opening day crowds

Here is a crowd check for the opening day of both this attraction and land!

Early in the morning, the virtual queues sold out super quickly, which led us to believe we were in for a busy, crowded day! As the morning rides progressed and the boarding groups started to be called, we noticed the ride went down for a few hours, interrupting the flow of the crowds that had gathered just outside of the ride.

Morning crowds at Tiana’s Bayou Adventure

It took a bit, but eventually, the ride reopened, and still, the crowds didn’t appear to be too bad, despite the ride having been closed for a few hours. When the next virtual queue opened up, we got a much lower boarding group than we anticipated.

Not quite the crowds we anticipated

Unfortunately, the virtual queue’s boarding groups paused boarding again, and despite the delays, the crowds still didn’t seem so bad.

Waiting for the ride

Of course, we’re also aware this is just day one of the newest Disney ride to open, so we could expect to see the crowds start growing over the weekend, and as word gets out, the ride is capable of staying open longer throughout the day.

We are here to check out everything in Bayou Country as well as try some new menu items at Tiana’s Palace in New Orleans Square, so make sure to stay tuned to Disney Food Blog to stay up to date on all the latest Disney news!
