Imagineer Podcast

Tiana's Bayou Adventure officially opened on June 28, 2024 at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World and is scheduled to open later in 2024 at Disneyland. Replacing Splash Mountain, Tiana's Bayou Adventure offers the same ride layout and system with an entirely reimagined storyline. Complete with incredible details from The Princess and the Frog, New Orleans culture, and the story of Leah Chase (the real-life inspiration for Princess Tiana), Tiana's Bayou Adventure provides a depth that takes Walt Disney Imagineering to new heights. Between the animatronics, original music, and special effects, along with the same famous 50-foot plunge as its predecessor, Tiana's Bayou Adventure offers joyful moments and iconic thrills for the entire family. In this episode, I'm joined by Nick (The Theme Park Dad) to discuss our thoughts about riding Tiana's Bayou Adventure as well as the Imagineering details and storyline that make the attraction an incredible addition to Magic Kingdom (and Disneyland).   Get bonus content,
