Tiana's Bayou Adventure nighttime lighting test April 21 2024
Posted: Monday April 22, 2024 9:30am ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Lighting tests have been underway over the last week at Tiana's Bayou Adventure in Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom, giving guests a first look at the new attraction after dark.

The tiara topped Tiana's Food tower is bathed in a deep orange glow from the support platform.



The bayou is lit in shades of blue, purple, and green from fixtures in the water and throughout the area.

Completing the bayou scene, we also see flickering lights from fireflies.

We are still waiting for a precise opening date, but Disney has previously said that Tiana's Bayou Adventure will open this summer at Walt Disney World and later in 2024 at Disneyland. The current best estimates are still leaning toward the mid-June timeframe, with previews expected before then.

This post won’t age well once the first ride through videos show us the lift hill ascent is a duet between Mama Odie and Steven Tyler at a rave.

The outside of TBA looks awesome. If the inside matches it then this is going to be one amazing ride.

A small section of wall has been removed to reveal a few props. It also appears a new sign, still wrapped, has been installed in front of the railroad station.
