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

It's where Tiana's Foods sells the stuffed corpses of their critter friends!

Man, you went down a much darker path with that name than I did!

If the General Store sells kitchenwares, how well will they sell since they don't have resort package delivery anymore? "Can you store this Tiana Toaster somewhere while we ride Space Mountain?" Without actually knowing yet what that location will sell, of course.

I love this.

This store might be the best part of the whole retheme

"Critter Coop, dad?"

"Yeah, that's where they keep the critters locked up"

Co-op, community, employee-owned... they're hitting all the cool, hip, and trendy words of the early 2010's 1930's!

I would totally change my mind on this if it changed from a food co-op to a prohibition era bootlegging speakeasy. I’d totally be digging the musical critters and hooch.

Many in-park stores sell various housewares, particularly in the World Showcase. It's not new.

The Critter Co-op sign looks like a Ray Kinman sign. He used to do a bunch of Disney's wooden signs for rides. Wasn't he signed on for a mystery project last year? I bet Disney wanted him to create the sign with the reference to Splash Mountain.

If you can’t make your keep in the critter band, that’s the fate you’re destined for

The fonting and art style on the truck, water tower, and entrance signs are decidedly Art Nouveau

In my eyes, they are decidedly a modern version of art nouveau inspired.

So the critter co-op sells all the animal plushies and her general store will sell all the Tiana Foods branded kitchenware? Smart move. I think the critter co-op will make a ton of money. Love that they are giving names and characters to the critters and really leaning into that. It was everything I had hoped for- less salt mine and more critters.

Although, it is confusing because in the in-world movie animals acted like animals and only acted more human when Tiana was in frog form. So, I guess animals can play instruments and everyone is cool with it? Honestly, I don't care. It's adorable and I think this is exactly the direction this ride/shopping should lean into.

Getting more excited by the day!

You are correct about the animals in the movies, but Louis was definitely an exception and acted himself around Tiana as a frog and also normal humans. So I guess for the ride we're just led to believe that all the critters here are more like Louis and not afraid to be themselves around humans lol

It’s Louis as in Loo-ihs right? Watched a Mickey Views vlog the other day and Brayden had me second guessing as he kept saying Loo-ee.

Either that or as an ingredient in Tiana's Foods.

So now Tiana owns a restaurant chain, a foods manufacturing co-op company, a salt mine and a general store? This is so like the character in the film!

Does she own the store or the bayou? Or both?

Maybe she just goes around writing "Tiana's" on everything?

She takes her cue from Disney.

The poster and everything else about the shop almost make you want to forget it's Tiana's attraction. Think of the names it could have been: Bobbin' Down the Bayou Boat Ride. Critter Cascades. Critter Creek Ride.

It's her kingdom after all.

It's her kingdom after all.

For sure. Tiana predates Mickey Mouse by a year, 1927.
This was no accident. This was intended.

It's Tiana's kingdom and we're just living in it!
