UPDATE for Annual Passholders Hoping to Ride Tiana’s Bayou Adventure EARLY at Disney World

We’re sure you’ve heard it a thousand times so we’ll spare you the “Almost There” Princess and the Frog jokes. But seriously, we’re almost there when it comes to the grand opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure!

Previews are currently in progress before the new ride officially opens to the public on June 28th, 2024 at Magic Kingdom. It’s been a bit of a rocky journey for us to ride with lots of downtime (but hey, that’s what previews are for, right?) but luckily, Disney has shared a full ride through and look inside. Now, if you are an Annual Passholder hoping to ride during previews, we’ve got good news for you!

Ever since previews were announced for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, Park Passes filled up and have been sold out ever since on Annual Passholder preview dates. Yes, Annual Passholders still need to make Park Pass Reservations on most days (except for Good-To-Go Days).

The previews for Passholders are happening on June 13th, 14th, 16th, 17th, 18th, and 20th, 2024. If you don’t have a Park Pass and thought all hope was lost, you’re in luck!

We just spotted on the Annual Pass calendar that Park Passes were refilled for June 20th. Availability can fluctuate at any time, but if you’ve been waiting to make a Magic Kingdom reservation for that day, now’s your chance!

Even if you still can’t score a reservation for the day you need, don’t fret! The previews will be using a Virtual Queue system with two times to enter through the My Disney Experience app — 7AM and 1PM.

To get around this, you can book a Park Pass for any other park and then hop to Magic Kingdom before 1PM and try to join the queue.

Virtual Queue spots can be tricky to score and we expect these previews to fill up quickly. One of our biggest tips is to disconnect from the Disney Wi-Fi. Sometimes it lags since so many people are using it! Also, try having multiple people in your group attempt to join.
