During our Saturday visit to Magic Kingdom, we noticed several changes at Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, which is scheduled to open in just over a month.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Construction Walls

First: construction walls are down on this side of the ride, revealing some props. The walls previously followed the fencing further down this road, which is where Magic Kingdom parades begin.

There are several crates, barrels, and a bag labeled “beans” a few yards beyond the fence.

This pile of props is similar to the props installed outside the Tiana’s Bayou Adventure entrance in March. They match the general theming of Frontierland and don’t necessarily reveal much about Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.

Tarp-Covered Props

Speaking of props, we noticed a couple of new elements behind construction walls around the corner. They’re located right at the front of the attraction, along the bridge.

The elements are covered with black tarps so we can’t see what exactly they are.

They are close to the edge of the bridge — we could probably touch them if the walls were down.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Entrance

Over at the entrance to Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, below the Frontierland train station, we still don’t have wait time and Lightning Lane signage. But there is a new sign a few yards in front of the station. Unfortunately, this is also covered by tarps.

The sign peeks above the construction walls. It’s to the right when facing the frames for other signage.

Tape secures the tarps in place.

From the train station above, we could see the full sign structure. There’s a large rectangular element on top of two legs. Then a smaller element is on top of the rectangle.

Meanwhile, back in front of the station, this sign remains wrapped in tarps, too. It was installed earlier this month.

Tiana’s Foods Podium

Next to the queue under the train station, we spotted a new Tiana’s Foods podium.

The podium is just past “tapstile” poles for Lightning Lane entry. It resembles a crate with the Tiana’s Foods logo stamped on the front. It looks like this is where Cast Members will be stationed to help guests entering the Lightning Lane.

Light Strip

A minor update is the addition of a light strip on this access staircase next to the ride’s flume. This staircase is for cast and crew members, as well as for evacuations.

The lighting strip will keep the stairs illuminated in the dark.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Queue

Crews have also been working on lighting in the queue. There are several lampposts and blue light fixtures hang from wires.

Wiring is not quite complete. There are small hatches open in the posts where electrical wiring hangs out.

There are also wires hanging where lights have yet to be installed.

The blue lampposts have received golden touches.

On the back of the train station, a new black trumpet-shaped element has been installed. Another one is partially hidden by a tree in the above photo. These may be speakers.

More of these black trumpets are on poles in the queue.

We saw crew members working in the back left corner of the queue.

Another crew member was cleaning up the pathway in front of the Tiana’s Foods delivery truck, which is still covered.

The queue features several trees, wrought iron and wooden fencing, and flagstone pathways.

From below, we also saw a crew member working new one of the Lari the armadillo figures.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is scheduled to open at Magic Kingdom on June 28, 2024, after several previews. It will use a virtual queue and Lightning Lane upon opening. Disney expects to open a standby queue soon after.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will open at Disneyland later in the year.
