According to several WDWMAGIC sources who are familiar with the plans, Disney World's TRON Lightcycle Run will be in previews during March 2023 and officially open in April 2023.

 

Soft openings for TRON at Magic Kingdom are planned to take place in March 2023, including the usual previews for select groups of guests. These groups include Cast Members, Annual Passholders, Disney Vacation Club Members, Club 33 members, and a D23 ticketed event.

A media event for TRON is planned for March, which may also include a preview of the updated Magic Kingdom firework show 'Happily Ever After.'

Following the month of previews in March, TRON Lightcycle Run is expected to have its official grand opening in April 2023.

Disney has yet to announce any specific dates but said in September 2022 that TRON will open in Spring 2023. Watch the video below to see some early test rides of TRON Lightcycle Run at Walt Disney World.

Not that I have a problem with jogging in general, but I never find that I’m very far in line behind the people who jogged. 🤷🏻‍♂️

It's refreshing to know Disney guests can still run and jog!!

Done it 2 days in a row now and indeed it was a stampede...people running, jogging...saw one woman drop her phone and cause a dawned pile up as she stopped to pick it up.

The VQ system (finally) ends today for Tron! Standby line starts tomorrow September 9, 2024. Scatterplot of every single VQ data point collected for the past 538 days, which includes soft opening and everyday since the ride opened on April 4, 2023. Here's my final update for it and wrap-up post:

And If I was 6’10” and a had a good jump shot I’d be in the NBA.

It’s literally show up an hour early?

I agree, that sun will be burning down on people, also its not the quickest loading for me, with only say 8-10 people in the show room, be interesting how long that line goes. if the line looks long for us, it'll be ILL's all round.

Yes! It’s an excellent ride experience. Definitely a must-do E-ticket. If it was longer and had a properly themed (or better hidden) show-building, it would be among the best additions on property.

If they add it early entry resort guest might be less likely to buy a lighten lane single pass thingy or whatever it's called now. 😉 💰
