Disneyland Announces Tiana's Bayou Adventure Previews

Key Takeaways

  • Tiana’s Bayou Adventure opens to Magic Key previews on Oct 21 and to the public on Nov 15.
  • Disneyland guests can also experience the Nightmare Before Christmas overlay at Haunted Mansion until January.
  • Exciting updates from D23 event include new projects at Disneyland & Disney World.

As a dedicated Disneyland enthusiast with decades of park visits under my belt, I can’t help but feel a rush of excitement at the news that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is finally opening its doors to Magic Key holders this fall! After what feels like an eternity since the announcement of its arrival, the prospect of stepping into this enchanting bayou world is almost too much to bear.


At Disneyland Resort, they’ve revealed when Magic Key holders can embark on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, as the attraction gears up for its November debut. With the holiday season already in full swing at Disneyland, visitors will have the chance to enjoy the attraction right before Christmas, with some getting a sneak peek even before the end of October.

2020 saw the unveiling of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure as the new replacement for the cherished Splash Mountain ride at both Disneyland in California and Walt Disney World in Florida. However, the announcement faced some criticism, leading to Splash Mountain’s closure at both parks in 2023. Earlier this summer, Walt Disney World introduced Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, while Disneyland merely announced that its version would debut sometime during the fall, aligning with the park’s holiday season. Now, Disneyland visitors are eagerly awaiting news about when they can experience this new attraction.

Disneyland enthusiasts with Magic Key passes will get an early peek at the upcoming attraction before it’s open to the general public, starting from October 21 to November 12, 2024. This special sneak-peek is only for Magic Key holders during designated times. To secure a spot, passholders must have a park reservation for one of these preview dates, be present in the park, and join a Virtual Queue on the day they wish to ride the attraction. The grand opening to the public will take place on November 15, 2024, as announced on Disneyland’s Magic Key Instagram page.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Opens to Magic Key Previews Amid Holiday Season

Visitors at Disneyland can enjoy Tiana’s Bayou Adventure alongside the reopened Haunted Mansion, decorated for its Nightmare Before Christmas holiday theme until January. Additionally, Disneyland is hosting the sold-out after-hours Halloween event, Oogie Boogie Bash, in Disney California Adventure until October 31. From November 8 to December 20 on select dates, this event will transition into Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party.

Following some thrilling announcements from the D23 event in August, there’s more good news! We’re looking forward to new attractions at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland. In California, the Avengers Campus is expanding with fresh rides, while Disney World visitors can anticipate a new villain-themed area on the horizon. It’s an exhilarating period for Disneyland fans, so remember to make plans ahead and expect larger crowds and longer wait times in the upcoming months.
