food IS a theme park
Although we’re excited to have an opening timeline for TRON Lightcycle Run in Magic Kingdom, we really can’t wait for the Walt Disney World Railroad to return.
Fantasyland station
As you may know, the construction of the TRON ride has affected the railroad’s route, so it’s been closed for a while. We’ve seen a new tunnel built under TRON, which will be part of the railroad’s new path. Today, though, we saw A NEW update that could mean we’re one step closer to seeing the Railroad reopen!
Disney World is always changing, growing, and evolving into something else, and that means there is almost always some kind of construction going on.
The Polynesian is such a beautiful resort
We’re still following the progress of the upcoming Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana attraction at EPCOT, as well as keeping an eye on when Splash Mountain in Magic Kingdom will close for its retheming. We’ve also been following along with the progress of the new DVC villas coming to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, and now we’ve got some photos to share with you as part of the latest update. Let’s take a few minutes and see what this area looks like now.
Is there anything more exciting than a NEW attraction in Disney World?
WOW!
We’re gearing up for several new additions, including the TRON coaster, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, the PLAY! Pavilion, and of course, Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana. And if that last one piqued your interest, we’ve got a big construction update for you!
Is Disney’s Hollywood Studios your favorite park at Disney World? We get it — especially if you happen to be a Star Wars or Toy Story fan.

Maybe you’re like us and just love the food: who can resist a Ronto Wrap or a Carrot Cake Cookie? Whatever the case, things are always going on in Hollywood Studios, so let’s take a look at the latest!
Now that we know when the TRON roller coaster is expected to open in Magic Kingdom, we’re even more excited about this future thrill ride!
TRON Lightcycle Run
TRON Lightcycle Run has been in progress since 2017 when it was announced at the D23 Expo, and it was originally supposed to open back in 2021 for Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration. Instead, TRON’s opening was delayed after Disney World closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and we’ve been keeping a close eye on construction progress by taking a ride on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover. Recently Disney announced that TRON would open April 4, 2023, and construction is moving along!
Okay Disney, come on…we’re all waiting!
Fantasmic billboard in Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Since the parks reopened in 2020, we’ve seen the slow return of our favorite restaurants, resorts, and entertainment options all around the resort. But even now, there are still a few things we’re waiting on…including the return of the beloved nighttime show Fantasmic! at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

But with an opening date missing from this year’s D23 Expo announcements, can we really expect to see the restaurant open before the year ends? We can only hope so. For now, let’s take a look at the construction progress over at Roundup Rodeo BBQ!
