News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

[BagOfGroceries]

The Little Mermaid attraction is scheduled to be updated for modern sensitivities and inclusion next year

Joking or not, we can all agree that ride needs some repairs and refurbs

 

[JD80]

Even if mermaid isn't the most innovative or best designed ride, my kids have always loved it (now 10, 8 and 5) and never complained when we hop on when waits are very low (or multiple rides when FP+ refreshes allowed us to).

I wonder how the response would be on here if an attraction was renovated to be a moving walkway with laser tag guns?

 

[FigmentFan82]

It is not that old at all... it is one of the newer rides....comparatively

But it is old! That one corner of 20K they re-used to skirt OSHA or whatever! lol

Depends which attraction and how many years it would take Disney to do the renovation

In my mind it’s “newer” but some call it old since it opened in 2014.

It made me think. Moana is not open yet, but will take over 4 years to build.

Does technology move so fast that Moana already has obsolete components( I am thinking of the water treatment plant) before it opens?

That attraction looks pretty darn boring. Someone had a video of it online. But also, I don't think I'm it's target market, so may be pretty darn fun for others.

Just supposed to be a high capacity quick ride aimed at kids/families with young kids as their is no height requirement ... Which is something take park needed

You mean, just like Buzz Lightyear?

That comparison would be fair if this new attraction was made 25 years earlier and actually had a vehicle to ride.

 

[Bocabear]

2014 is comparatively young... Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters was probably the next newest ride prior to the New Fantasyland, and that opened in 2005... So Magic Kingdom is due for a new ride now...if every 9 years was the measurement....

This feels to be moving so fast compared to MK? Wasn’t it months and months before the tree came down?

 

[Bocabear]

Looks like they are doing a lot of digging....maybe the queue will be in the swamp? That would be pretty cool....

MK
Jan 23 - Closed
April 10- Tree removed including stump
~78 days

DL
May 31 - Closed
July 20 - Tree removed, base & stump still remains
~50 days

A difference of about 20-ish days, but it's not an exact comparison yet. The stump may take another week at DL.

If it turned out as much fun as Villain Con, I’d be all for it.

It’s actually a ton of fun in person. Rode it six times last Saturday. I genuinely enjoyed it more than Tron or MMRR, as the quick-moving line, fun game, and great writing/humor make for a very breezy, drop-in-anytime experience. As others have said, it’s a great high-capacity, all-ages filler attraction the park really needed in its lineup.

lol really, youd be ok if splash was replaced with villian con style ride where you stand and shoot at screens?
