Disney has announced the early Annual Passholder preview dates for Tiana's Bayou Adventure at Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World.

The previews will take place on June 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, and 20, 2024. To participate, Passholders must make a park reservation and join a virtual queue on the day of the preview via the My Disney Experience app, with opportunities to join at 7:00 am and 1:00 pm each day.

Tiana's Bayou Adventure Annual Passholder Preview Dates

Passholder previews will take place at Magic Kingdom park on June 13, 14, 16, 17, 18 and 20.

Park Reservations & Virtual Queue Required

A virtual queue will be in place for Annual Passholder previews of Tiana's Bayou Adventure. Here's how it works.

First, make a park reservation to Magic Kingdom park on a preview date to have the opportunity to join the 7:00 am virtual queue for that day. Or, you can make a park reservation to any theme park on a preview date to have the opportunity to join the 1:00 pm virtual queue.

On the date of your reservation, request to join the virtual queue by using the My Disney Experience app. There will be 2 opportunities to join each day of previews.

The 7:00 am virtual queue will be available to Passholders with a park reservation to Magic Kingdom park for that day.

The 1:00 pm virtual queue will be available to Passholders with a park reservation to any theme park for that day. As a reminder, Passholders must enter the theme park where they have a reservation prior to visiting Magic Kingdom park. Or, on June 13, 14, 17, 18 or 20, they can enter Magic Kingdom park without a reservation after 2:00 PM.

Passholders do not need to have entered a theme park when they request to join the virtual queue.

Important Information

Passholders must have a Walt Disney World Resort Annual Pass with valid admission on the preview date. Applicable pass blockout dates apply. Park reservations are limited and subject to availability.

Each Passholder can request to join a virtual queue no more than once per day.

Passholders may hold boarding groups for the preview virtual queue and an attraction virtual queue at the same time, when available.

^This^ You can freeze the animatronics and turn off the dialouge in this moment and you'd still know that Br'er Fox was about clobber Br'er Rabbit while he's distracted laughing at Br'er Bear The same can't be said for Bayou where the scenes turn into "Tiana and Louis stand behind a bunch of animals" when you turn off the music and freeze everything.

Tiana's needs its AA's to function properly more than Splash did. The scenes in Splash worked even when static.

Well… rode it today, mostly clean sheet. Definitely a downgrade. Queue is an upgrade. Feels like it got 80% the way there and just faltered. Lots of noticeably broken effects despite never having ridden it. Flickering big Tiana screen, b-mode Tiana, broken lift screen.

They even took Splash out of the name. Wouldn't that fix it?? I mean, the bayous of Texas and Louisiana are known for their dry, non-humid climates.

Who could have foreseen there would be water in this environment?

do we know the most common cause for a particular function not working properly on these animatronic? I remember reading earlier that it's the moisture in the air that isn't playing nice with the all electronic AAs. What is the fix overnight to repair it if the malfunctions are limited to a couple functions and not the entire AA?

The ride is good and there are parts that are certainly improvements over Splash. Having said that, the Animatronics weren't working particularly well on the two rides I've had thus far. I'm 1 for 4 in working Mama Odie animatronics. I haven't seen Juju, and the indoor Tiana's and Louis's have been hit or miss. I think it's perfectly reasonable to say that the second half of the attraction (the double drop and beyond) is better than Splash Mountain. I certainly can't say that they cheaped out on this. Aesthetically, the exterior of the attraction looks much better than Splash every did.
