Splash Mountain at Magic Kingdom Finally Gets a Closing Date

Splash Mountain at the Magic Kingdom in Florida finally has a closing date: January 23rd, 2023. The ride was previously announced to close and transform into a Princess and the Frog themed ride, and that announcement feels like it was decades ago at this point. Of course, there was a pandemic and other obstacles along the way, but it feels like Disney's timeline of announcing park changes and implementing them has become as wide as the ocean.

Regardless, when the attraction reopens in 2024 it will be called Tiana's Bayou Adventure, and be set a year after the conclusion of The Princess and the Frog feature film.

The announcement came after Disney released some information about a new scene in the ride, depicted above. It certainly looks pretty! Tiana and her alligator pal Louis are planning to hold a special celebration for the people of New Orleans, and they're welcoming guests to the action in the scene above. It will be one of the first that guests encounter once they get inside the mountain. The critters who are playing a selection of natural instruments are also going to be featured throughout the ride, with more details on that to come - says Disney.

Tiana's Bayou Adventure is also slated to open at Disneyland sometime in 2024 as well, however a closing date for Splash Mountain at that park has not yet been announced.
