The Tomorrowland Launch Depot is now open at Magic Kingdom, serving as the merchandise headquarters for the new TRON Lightcycle Run attraction.


Taking over the space of the former Tomorrowland Light & Power Co., Launch Depot will also serve as the exit from Space Mountain.



Launch Depot is hard to miss, with the building sitting at the entrance and exit corridor to the TRON area. There are doors at both ends of the building, and along the sides, with window displays highlighting the merchandise.

Inside you'll find all of the merchandise initially sold in the pop-up stores on opening day, with the addition of the TRON Identity Program. You can find out more about that here.



The space is light and airy - a nice upgrade from the former Light & Power Co. that often seemed to be a neglected space selling random Disney merchandise alongside massage chairs and phone chargers.

A made to order area allows you to create custom TRON phone cases, Apple Watch bands, magnets and headphone cases.


Launch Depot is also home to a Fuel Rod charger station.

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. 😉 💰
