food IS a theme park
Okay, so who’s excited to ride the new TRON Lightcycle / Run in Disney World?

Magic Kingdom’s newest ride is one of its most thrilling, with a super fast launch, a race through the Grid, and fun TRON details that make you feel immersed in the world of the Tron movies! Well, we just got a chance to ride it and we’re going to tell you EVERYTHING about the ride and, hopefully, answer any questions you may have!
If you’re heading to Disney World, there are a lot of things that might put a damper on your vacation.
Hollywood Studios
We’ve been unexpectedly sick in the parks before, been caught in terrible weather, and missed our fair share of dining reservations and Lightning Lane windows. But on top of all that, we often see unexpected ride closures — and today there were quite a few!
We are only a couple months away from the opening of Disney World’s NEW ride, TRON Lightcycle / Run.

We already know SO much about this ride, like how it guests will need to ride it via virtual queue or through the Individual Lightning Lane option. We know that it has adaptive seating for guests who can’t comfortably ride on the lightcycles. Guests will also be required to use lockers to store their belongings. A new video, though, has shown us some NEW details.
When is the BEST time to go to Disney World?!
Magic Kingdom
Well, the answer all depends on YOU. Do you want to avoid crowds at all costs? Don’t visit during spring break. Do you want to be a part of the action when a brand new ride like TRON Lightcycle / Run opens? Prepare to visit when the parks are busy. If you are someone who is seeking lower wait times on a Disney World trip, right now might be the best time to visit Disney World!
SOON, we’ll all be entering the Grid.

That’s right, TRON Lightcycle / Run at Disney World opens on April 4th, but we’ve seen it testing recently AND Cast Members are already previewing the ride. We even got a look at what Cast Members working the ride will be wearing. Now, though, we’ve got a VIDEO of the ride experience!
Okay, who’s ready to enter The Grid with Magic Kingdom’s new ride? TRON Lightcycle / Run will take Disney World guests on a thrilling lightcycle ride through a “dark computerized world.”

TRON’s big opening is coming up soon on April 4th, and we’re starting to see a LOT of updates on the site, like the sign in front of the ride. We’ve also seen some ride vehicle testing. Well, now, we just saw ANOTHER update — we now know what Cast Members on the ride will be wearing!
We’ve had another BIG week of Disney news!
TRON Sign
Not only did the 100th anniversary celebration kick off in Disneyland, but we got some major announcements for TRON Lightcycle / Run which is set to open on April 4th, 2023. You may think this time between the holidays and spring break/TRON’s opening is slow, but the wait times are telling us otherwise.
We’re only a few days away from the official opening of a new ride in Disneyland!
Model of Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway
We’re talking about Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway, which will open on January 27th! But we got to attend a press event to get a first look at the ride, and we’re taking YOU along with us! So hop onboard and get ready for that runaway train!
Well, the day has finally come — today is the LAST day Disney World guests will get to ride Splash Mountain. The attraction will be reimagined into a new ride, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.
Splash Mountain
We already saw LOADS of crowds getting in one last ride on the attraction this weekend, but today, things are looking even busier! For those who chose to purchase Genie+ to access Splash Mountain’s Lightning Lane, we hope you got a time earlier because as of right now, there are no Lightning Lane times left!
We’ve officially entered a slower season in Disney World, but it doesn’t always feel like it!
TRON Construction
Although this time of year is typically not as busy as the holidays or spring break time, there are plenty of things happening in the parks to draw people in. The Festival of the Arts is happening over in EPCOT right now, a popular Princess meet and greet is reopening, TRON Lightcycle / Run is getting closer to its opening (which means previews are coming soon), and so much more. So how is all of this impacting the wait times?
