The Tiana's Bayou Adventure ride at Disneyland, the long-anticipated replacement for Splash Mountain, represents a new chapter for the theme park.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure opens on Friday, and excitement is buzzing at the Southern California resort. It’s been months since Walt Disney World’s version of the ride debuted in June and nearly a year and a half since the original Splash Mountain closed in May 2023.

KTLA’s Dayna Devon went live from Disneyland Resort in Anaheim to experience everything Disney’s Festival of Holidays has to offer. She also previewed Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, a brand-new ride that officially opens on Nov.
