Tiana’s Bayou Adventure opens on Friday, and excitement is buzzing at the Southern California resort. It’s been months since Walt Disney World’s version of the ride debuted in June and nearly a year and a half since the original Splash Mountain closed in May 2023.

Tiana's Bayou Adventure is basically the same ride at Disneyland and Disney world, but actually one is better.

Disneyland calls it a musical journey "full of twists, turns and festive fun that crescendos with a 50-foot drop – as well as a swingin' soiree."
