In the heart of New Orleans – the vibrant city of Princess Tiana’s dreams – the phrase “laissez les bons temps rouler” echoes through the streets, inviting everyone to let the good times roll. And this summer, the magic of Mardi Gras will come alive as Tiana’s Bayou Adventure makes its debut at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.
With Princess Tiana leading the way, this enchanting new attraction delves deeper into her story following the events of “The Princess and the Frog.” Set amidst the festive atmosphere of Mardi Gras, guests will embark on a journey through the bayou, filled with music, magic, and a cast of new friends.
Music takes center stage in Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, with adorable critters serenading guests with lively tunes inspired by the sounds of New Orleans. From zydeco to other regional favorites, the bayou will come alive with the spirit of Louisiana. Collaborating with award-winning artists PJ Morton and Terence Blanchard, the attraction features both original music and beloved songs from the film, ensuring a toe-tapping experience for all.

Joining Princess Tiana are familiar faces from the movie, with Bruno Campos reprising his role as Prince Naveen, Jenifer Lewis as Mama Odie, Michael Leon Wooley as Louis, and the incomparable Anika Noni Rose as Princess Tiana herself.
As guests glide through the bayou, they’ll encounter dozens of new Audio-Animatronics figures, including Eudora, Charlotte, Prince Ralphie, and more. The attraction is infused with authentic New Orleans artistry, from the stunning artwork of Louisiana’s Malaika Favorite to the craftsmanship of master blacksmith Darryl Reeves and artist Sharika Mahdi.
But the magic doesn’t stop there. As guests wait in line, they’ll be transported to the French Quarter with the irresistible scent of beignets frying, courtesy of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure queue.
Tiana’s story is a testament to the power of dreams, and with the collaboration of Imagineers, Disney Animation artists, Cast Members, and Louisiana artisans, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is poised to bring those dreams to life.
Scheduled to open at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida in summer 2024 and later in 2024 at Disneyland Park in California, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure promises to be an unforgettable journey through the heart and soul of New Orleans, where dreams truly do come true.
