The upcoming D23 event, Down in New Orleans – Celebrating 15 Years of The Princess and the Frog, will include a deep-dive presentation from Walt Disney Imagineering into the creation of Tiana's Bayou Adventure.

 

Taking place on March 23, 2024, in New Orleans, Louisiana, the D23 event will celebrate 15 years of Walt Disney Animation Studios' classic The Princess and the Frog.

D23 says, "Guests of this event will get a peek at what's cooking with Tiana's Bayou Adventure-coming to Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort later this year. At a specially curated presentation, you'll discover new ingredients at play from Walt Disney Imagineering, detailing the impeccable research, collaboration, and creative development that is bringing elements of the real-life magic from New Orleans to this exciting attraction. It's going to be a can't-miss deep dive into what fans can anticipate from this new adventure with Tiana, Naveen, and a whole bayou of friends, both new and familiar!"

The D23 Down in New Orleans event on March 23 also provides one of two upcoming opportunities for Disney to announce an opening date for Tiana's Bayou Adventure, the other being the Annual Shareholders meeting on April 3.

Our vacation ends on the 28th so Tiana's gift to me will be an extension!

I'm still guessing first week of July. FWIW, MK's hard ticket after hour event stops after 6/27.

Hurricanes if were talking Tiana's Bayou Adventure. Though I wouldn't mind a massage. Spa co-op too?

Maybe we should start criticizing them for lack of massages in the queue! And its lack of free Piña Coladas!

They heard our criticisms before opening and course corrected. It worked! Now we just have to whine about the banners and signage some more... lol

Imagineering is on-site today watching the installation of flora to cover the fence in front of the drop, finally. I'll have photos this afternoon. Looks like as of today, it will be covered for good.

Thanks for these! That close up of the back of the crown - to me - shows that Ray and Evangaline probably won't light up. :( Such a missed opportunity for a little extra magic. After all, Evangeline is the second star to the right.....
