Disney provided a brief update on Tiana's Bayou Adventure in a press briefing earlier today.

With construction on the Splash Mountain replacement moving at full pace, we will soon see the tiara-topped water tower added to the mountain.

Disney says that we should expect to see the new water tower installed later this summer.

Tiana's Bayou Adventure remains on target to open in late 2024 at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.

Not because they want to be! Tony could have led the Splash redesign with Tiana but they wanted a certain imagineer I guess.

But they are gone (yeah I know about Joe but)

Current wait is 40 minutes, radiator springs racers is at 75, Incredicoaster at 45. It’s nothing special but it holds its own. Tony and Joe are still alive! Heck Bob Gurr is still alive! It’s always a gamble. The Star Wars franchise certainly stood the test of time, honey I shrunk the kids not so much. Money wise avatar is hard to beat but nobody is booking trips to DAK for it vs. Harry Potter at Universal. I don’t know if Guardians movies will enter classic status or not.

I'm going to guess the opening will be June 29. (Just cuz no one has guessed it yet, and it is my daughter's birthday :D ) And I will add that I predict they will announce the opening date on May 7 (complete and total shot in the dark).

Can the secret ads stay? The ones where you think you’re clicking “post reply”, but, actually…surprise! It’s an ad!

mickEblu1 hour ago

Lol. I give up.

TheCoasterNerd1 hour ago

That would explain why I didn't get a card last year! (I don't actually use it lol)

FettFan1 hour ago

Oh yes. Not offensive to anyone with Cajun ancestry AT ALL.

But what if you use adblock plus, the completely free and easy to use ad blocker found on the chrome web store? Try it today for free?

Put me down as another 6/28-er!

Oooooh opening date game? This is fun because it doesn't involve arguing! My original guess in January was July 1, but now I'm with @ToTBellHop on June 28. Last Friday before the end of the fiscal quarter and Disney After Hours ends at Magic Kingdom on June 27. I can't see that end date being a coincidence.

Because they announced June, they are going to open "something" June 30th is my guess.
