Some of the first merchandise for the upcoming Tiana's Bayou Adventure attraction at Walt Disney World is now available at Target.

Disney Store at Target is now selling The Princess and the Frog Louis Cuddleez for $39.99, complete with a Tiana's Bayou Adventure tag. You can buy it online for delivery, but availability in-store is limited.


We expect a significant amount of merchandise to be available alongside the opening of Tiana's Bayou Adventure. In addition to Target and Disney Store online, there will be two gift shops at the attraction.

Tiana's Bayou Adventure opens this summer at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom, and later in 2024 at Disneyland.

Disney has started sponsored ads for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.

Here's another nuanced opinion: I loved Splash, and I still maintain that this retheme was unnecessary. BUT, the animatronics for this attraction look like they will be the very best of anything WDI has done globally. From my incomplete perspective, this attraction looks to be better than Frozen Journey at Tokyo DisneySea. My main concern is the storyline (it maybe a bit too simplistic), and if the ride path/experience will feel organic to said story, or if it will feel like an obvious retrofit.

Thanks for sharing.

The thing that legitimately bothers me more than anything is that it feels like such a downgrade from the cinematic and (quite frankly) intimidating briar patch. Like you go from that to a patch of grass?

A nuanced opinion…….is that allowed here?

While I'm glad they did cover the railing (again this was always a given that they would never leave that thing exposed), it still needs a lot of work. I don't want to jump to conclusions and assume it's done, because it's highly likely it isn't. But in its current state, it looks awkward. There's something....off about it right now. I struggle to describe why, but it differs noticeably from either the model or render. There needs to be more than just tufts of straight grass, it also needs the different kinds of shrubbery and ferns that were present too. Again, it's very plausible this just isn't done yet. Would not surprise me. The foliage covering the rest of the mountain went through a lot of continuous and drawn out work and tweaking after it was first attached. Pruning and adding detail where needed.

Thing looks hideous

Possibly (probably), though I hope the general lighting package on the mountain as a whole is tweaked further as well (like I said, a bit less blue would be appreciated around the top). I think quite a few of the lilies probably still need their pads attached as well.

I mean, they just turned on the bottles for the first time ever yesterday, and Charita Carter mentioned them in a interview just a month ago... patience is key

I actually think they have, once. I think @Drew the Disney Dude may have caught it? Or someone did...

I liked Splash and didn't know a single thing about it for years .. but the "music" was very annoying to me so TBA seems to be real music that I will enjoy
