Disney knows EXACTLY what they’re doing. We’re getting all these exciting sneak peeks of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, and we’re all just on the edge of our seats WAITING for that release date.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom — April 2024

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will open in both Disneyland park and Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom this year! It has been announced that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will open in Disney World in the summer of 2024, and in “later in 2024” in Disneyland. We’ve gotten sneak peeks of animatronics coming to the ride, and now, we have an adorable video of a celebrity seeing an animatronic for the first time.

Disney shared a TikTok and an Instagram reel that highlights Jennifer Lewis, the voice of Mama Odie, seeing the Mama Odie animatronic for the first time. 😭

In the video, Lewis can’t help but point out how ON-POINT Mama Odie’s movements are! We also couldn’t help but get a bit misty-eyed as she gave a pep talk to the team of Imagineers about their hard work and how much of a gift the animatronic and their contribution is.

Of course, we also smiled at how she sang and danced to “Dig A Little Deeper” with the Imagineers.
