New Details From Disneyland's TIANA'S BAYOU ADVENTURE Attraction Plus a Video of the Model of the Ride From D23
Some new details have emerged regarding the upcoming transition from Disneyland’s attraction formerly known as Splash Mountain, which will henceforth be known as Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. The ride will allow fans to follow Tiana venturing into the bayou to find animal friends. She’s hosting a party for the people of New Orleans, but it’s missing a special ingredient.
Some of the original cast will be providing their voices to the attraction, including Anika Noni Rose (Tiana), Bruno Campos (Naveen), Michael Leon Wooley (Louis), and Jennifer Lewis (Mama Odie).
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will have new characters, animation, lighting, and mist effects to turn it into a completely new experience. The attraction is set to look especially gorgeous at night. It’s a love letter to New Orleans and it was important to the Imagineers for it to be authentic.
Anika Noni Rose came on stage to sing “Almost There” during the D23 Expo presentation. The Imagineer in charge of the new attraction was stationed at the model, which you can check out below, and she told GeekTyrant’s Joey and Billy that the new ride will be incredibly beautiful and will have a restaurant built in that will take fans to the New Orleans establishment, Tiana’s Palace, from the film.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is set to be open to guests at Disneyland and Magic Kingdom late 2024. Are you looking forward to this changeover?
