BREAKING: Opening Timeline For TRON Coaster in Disney World!

By 6 Comments

IMPORTANT UPDATE: TRON Lightcycle Run will open in Magic Kingdom on April 4, 2023. 

Before its opening, Disney is holding Cast Member, DVC, and Annual Passholder previews, as well as a ticketed event for D23 Gold Members. However, Annual Passholder and Disney Vacation Club member previews, AND the D23 TRON events have all REACHED CAPACITY/SOLD OUT. 

It feels like it’s been forever that we’ve been waiting for TRON Lightcycle Run to open in Magic Kingdom!

After being announced back in 2017, TRON Lightcycle Run was scheduled to open with Disney World’s 50th anniversary on October 1st, 2021. However, the ride did not open at that time and we were left to watch the construction progress in Magic Kingdom while we waited for news. Now, Disney has FINALLY announced an opening timeline!

If Disney’s New Burger Made a Sound, It Would Be a Sad Trombone

You can celebrate the fall season with Pumpkin Spice Lattes and get in the Halloween spirit with all kinds of spooky merchandise…so which seasonal celebration are we forgetting?

Sleeping Beauty Castle

Don’t let Oktoberfest slip through the cracks this year! The holiday celebrates German culture, with a traveling fair in Germany that has rides, shows, snacks, and (of course) the signature beer. But you can also find ways to celebrate Oktoberfest in Disneyland! Let’s head to Tomorrowland to try a new snack that’s inspired by this holiday. [Read more…]

Disney World rides are changing all the time — sometimes it’s a major overhaul (like The Great Movie Ride becoming Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway), and sometimes it’s just small updates and general refurbishments.

Tomorrowland

We know, a lot has happened in Disney World this year. But — there’s far more to look forward to. 

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in EPCOT

We probably don’t have to remind you of all of the returns, reopenings, and launches we’ve witnessed this year. To put it plainly, there’s been an overwhelming amount (we mean this in the best way possible!). There’s still much more to look forward to — the reopening of Walt Disney Railroad, Journey Of Water — Inspired By Moana, TRON Lightcycle Run, and the return of Fantasmic! And today, we spotted more confirmation that one of these projects is one step closer to being completed!

The PeopleMover Has Been Closed All Day in Disney World

By 1 Comment

Rides close down all the time in Disney World — it’s just a part of the reality of theme parks! Whether it comes down to the weather, technical malfunctions, refurbishments, or any other myriad of reasons, it’s common to see at least one ride unexpectedly closed every day in Disney World.

We love the PeopleMover!

One of our favorite classic Magic Kingdom rides, the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover, is a ride that seems to close down all the time. In fact, we’ve seen it temporarily closed many times and we’ve even been evacuated from it! And now — it seems that the PeopleMover’s problems continue.

We’ve NEVER Been So Excited To See Concrete Walls in Disney World

What are you most excited to see arrive in Disney World?! Maybe it’s the return of Fantasmic! Or…the opening of Roundup Rodeo BBQ.

Cinderella Castle

Well, we at DFB also have our sights set on the upcoming attraction — TRON Lightcycle Run. And while Disney hasn’t announced an opening timeline for this ride quite yet, we’re monitoring construction to see how close (or far) we are from an opening. Let’s take a look!

PHOTOS: An Updated Look at TRON Construction in Disney World

By 2 Comments

There’s one question we’ve asked ourselves over and over again: When will the TRON rollercoaster FINALLY open in Magic Kingdom?

When will the TRON coaster finally open?

The TRON: Lightcycle Run rollercoaster was announced way back in 2017 and was supposed to open in time for the start of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration, but this was delayed due to the pandemic-related park closures in 2020. Since the rollercoaster was announced, we’ve seen several new rides open like Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind (both located in EPCOT). When we were in Magic Kingdom recently, we decided to take a spin on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover to look at the construction progress for the new ride. Here’s what we saw!

Space Mountain is DOWN in Disney World

By Leave a Comment

It’s a real bummer when you have your heart set on a ride in Disney World and it’s not working properly.

Space Mountain

We’ve been evacuated from rides, we’ve seen some rides with technical problems, and we’ve even seen a malfunctioning animatronic replaced with a…plant (yes, we’re serious). Today is no different — a ride in Magic Kingdom is currently down.
