D23 announced a hard ticket preview, with date to follow. As I recall, the Tron Coaster preview was $50, so maybe expect $75 to $100 here, as there's food this time.

About Tiana's Bayou Adventure
Embark on an enchanting musical journey inspired by the Disney animated film The Princess and the Frog!

Tiana's Bayou Adventure brings you into the next chapter of Princess Tiana's story. Join Tiana and jazz-loving alligator Louis on a voyage through shimmering bayou waters as they prepare for a spirited celebration during Mardi Gras season. Along the way, you'll see familiar faces, make new friends and plunge into fun—while enjoying toe-tapping tunes that will transport you to a lush Louisiana marsh.

Park Reservations & Virtual Queue Required
A virtual queue will be in place for Annual Passholder previews of Tiana's Bayou Adventure. Here’s how it works!

Someone ate the park reservation page.

 

[Gringrinngghost]

When I have been able to get in, I can only make them up to June 1st.

It's going as smooth as this;


oh and

 

[KatiebugFan]

I finally got a reservation for June 14th. Lets hope I get into the VQ.

 

[CntrlFlPete]

yep, someone ate the page.

I am slow and from all that verbiage -- it seems one can get in the park after two w/o a reservation -- one can join the 1 PM VQ w/o being in the park -- but I can't figure out -- I guess I need a reservation for any park to get in on the 1 PM VQ or can I join the 1 PM VQ w/o a RES and just go after 2 to the MK -- but if I get a RES to any other park to join the 1 PM VQ I then need to go to the other park 1st before hoping after two -- I am so lost on all of this -- why do they mention after 2? is that just so IO can go and join the VQ after two if it is still available.

Oh well, guess I should just try and make MK RES's for one or more of those days -- maybe get them all and then not able to visit on non good to go days for I can't hold that many RES's at once. Talk about blocking me out from eating lunch at the parks from time to time for the next month

 

[Gringrinngghost]

They have enacted a queue.

and the selection page is still someone eating a page...

EDIT: Magic Kingdom is gone on June 16th

I am not an AP, but I will be there with a friend who is one during the previews - do we think guests of someone with an AP will be able to join? I cannot find any language about this anywhere.

In the past, no. I can't imagine that would change now.

Do cast previews tend to increase crowds levels at the specific park?
