Magic Kingdom, you are hard to keep up with!
Cinderella Castle
Just in the past week we’ve seen a ton of updates come in about the upcoming debut of TRON Lightcycle / Run, and we’ve been working hard to keep up with all the other goings on in this park.
Get ready for your jaw to DROP.
TRON Sign
For what feels like forever, we have been watching for construction updates from TRON Lightcycle / Run in Magic Kingdom. With its April 4th opening date approaching, Cast Member previews on the way, and information revealed about the ride’s virtual queue, we’re getting more and more news each day. And now we’ve got a STUNNING update from the ride.
Disney World is changing all the time — no two days are alike!
Animal Kingdom
Whether you’re at the parks, resorts, or Disney Springs, chances are there’s some sort of construction project going on. With so many updates on the horizon, it can be hard to keep up — but that’s where we come in. Let’s take a look at the latest Disney World changes you need to see before your next trip!
It’s finally happening! We have an official opening date for TRON Lightcycle / Run in Magic Kingdom.
TRON Lightcycle / Run sign
We don’t have to wait long — the ride will open on April 4th! We’ve already learned a LOT more about it, including how it will have a virtual queue and be an Individual Lightning Lane option on Genie+. We also know guests will need to use lockers before they ride the attraction. Now, we want to point out an important detail about the ride’s seating.
Disney World is changing all the time, and some of those changes mean that certain rides, attractions, and restaurants have to CLOSE for a while.
Splash Mountain is closed
Before you head out the door on your next Disney World trip, you’ll want to know what’s NOT going to be available while you’re there. Check out everything that’s going to be closed in Disney World next week here! [Read more…]
2023 appears to be something of a year of closures at Disney World. On January 22nd Splash Mountain ferried its last guests, and we said goodbye to Magic Kingdom nighttime spectacular Disney Enchantment, which ended on April 2nd.
Restaurant Marrakesh
Not all of the closures are permanent, though. There are a fair amount of refurbishments happening across the resort as well. However, all of these changes aren’t limited to just attractions and shows.
Will you be in Disney World next week?
Animal Kingdom
If so, you’ll be arriving at a really good time. The weather won’t be too hot (although we can’t promise it won’t get a little chilly!). You don’t have to worry about marathon weekend crowds (because that’s over — for now). Plus you’ll be able to check out the EPCOT Festival of the Arts. But BEFORE you go, you will need to know about park hours and the park pass reservation availability.
Okay, where are our Toy Story lovers at?
Curtain Call in Magic Kingdom
You know who you are — you’ll spend a full day in Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Toy Story Land, riding Alien Swirling Saucers, Slinky Dog Dash, and Toy Story Mania over and over! Maybe you even eat all your meals at Woody’s Lunch Box. We bet you also collect fun Toy Story merchandise — if you do, we’ve got a pair of ears that feature two RARE Toy Story 4 characters!
Today has been a news-filled day for TRON Lightcycle / Run.
SO CLOSE!
We learned that the ride will be utilizing a Virtual Queue, guests can also purchase individual Lightning Lanes, and the attraction will require riders to lock up loose belongings in lockers. Now, we have ANOTHER update for you!
Are you ready to enter the Grid? We know we are!
TRON sign is up!
TRON Lightcycle / Run is set to open on April 4th, 2023 and we seriously can’t WAIT! Disney has given us so many new details lately — including shiny new signage that indicates the ride is ALMOST complete! Now, they’re giving us more information about what we expect when we finally get to experience the world of TRON for ourselves.
