Guests can get ready for the “feel everything movie of the year” with special, limited-time offerings across Disney Parks in celebration of “Inside Out 2,” now playing only in theaters!

Pixar Animation Studios’ “Inside Out 2” returns to the mind of newly minted teenager Riley just as Headquarters is undergoing a sudden demolition to make room for something entirely unexpected: new Emotions. Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust, who’ve long been running a successful operation by all accounts, aren’t sure how to feel when Anxiety, Envy, Ennui, and Embarrassment show up.

We will, of course, be capturing guests as they plunge into the bayou  on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.

PhotoPass Serves Up Memories All Over the Parks

Of course, Disney PhotoPass Service has more to offer during a visit to Walt Disney WorldResort than just these newest treats at Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.  We will get everyone in the picture at over 175 locations, including attraction photos onboard over a dozen attractions, 100 Magic Shots throughout all four parks and beyond, studio photography at four locations, and our private Capture Your Moment photo sessions.

Grab a snorkel, because today we’re diving in with the Disney Live Entertainment creative team working “behind-the-seas” on “The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure” – an all-new theatrical production coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios this fall.  

And when we say all-new, we do mean all-new! In a brand-new reimagining of the Walt Disney Animation Studios classic “The Little Mermaid,” the show features all-new physical sets, cast of puppets, live performers, and stunning visuals. 

“We thought about what Ariel’s room may look like and came up with this collage style that you’ll see woven throughout the production,” said Sarah Schmidt, Creative Concept Artist & Illustrator for Disney Live Entertainment. “This new look really informed every design decision – from scenic, to the puppets, even the custom digital content being created for the show.”

To pull off this artful blend of practical and projected scenic design, of real and digital puppetry, the team is pairing some tried and true methods (the blacklight puppets are back!) with state-of-the-art technology. 

“We’re using some really cutting-edge tools like motion capture technology, which you may have seen used in blockbuster films,” said James Silson, Show Director.  “Basically, we have a live performer in a suit covered in sensors, and the data captured from their performance helps us create a digital animation of the character, which our animators then use to bring them to life on stage.” 

This cutting-edge digital imagery will be used throughout the show to accent what is happening on stage, bringing to life characters like King Triton, Ursula, and even Ariel’s sisters, who kick the production off with an all-new “Daughters of Triton” number.  

“We’re really blending the line between real and digital in ways we’ve never done before to completely fill the stage for these show-stopping scenes,” said James. “You’re going to see these large new physical set pieces we’ve created blend seamlessly with a digital environment in a way that really fills the stage. You’ll see digital puppets transform into real ones right before your eyes. You’ll even see animated characters performing in the same space as real actors. It’s going to feel like magic!” 

June 10, 2024

Everyone’s “bear-y” favorite band is back together, so guests can get ready to snarl in sweet harmony on the Grizzly Hall stage, because Country Bear Musical Jamboree will debut on July 17! 

Known as a staple of Frontierland in Magic Kingdom Park here at Walt Disney World Resort, the Country Bears and their nostalgic way of growling out country-western tunes has kept audiences entertained for over 50 years. The bears are back in the spotlight with some fresh country hits a-“bruin,” Nashville-style.

We’ve already shared a sneak peek at some of the country stars like Mac McAnally who are inspiring the Country Bears’ new show with the all-too-perfect “Bare Necessities,” and we just invited Emily Ann Roberts, an up-and-coming country star and finalist on “The Voice,” to show off her twangin’ take on “Try Everything” from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Zootopia.”  

Trixie may take a whole heck of a lot of inspiration from that “bear”-iffic performance! Plus, singer-songwriter Allison Russel and musician Chris Thile shared their talents for Wendell and Teddi Barra’s sweet rendition of “A Whole New World.”

Be-“claws” these bears are ready to debut their all-new show, they called upon the talents of costume creators to the stars – our very own creative costuming team at Disney Live Entertainment, who recently gave a behind-the-seams look at dressing celebrities like the Country Bears.  

Today, we also got a first look at Wendell and Big Al in their fancy new duds from the show, which guests might see them showing off while out and about. 

We hope guests are ready to welcome the band back to the stage with all the appropriate hootin’ and hollerin’ because they better “bear”-lieve it’s gonna be a country-fied good time come July 17! 

June 5, 2024

As we count down to the opening of Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, we’d like to introduce guests to the breathtaking island that is home to Disney Cruise Line’s newest island destination and show what makes its marvelous shores so special. Let’s take a tour and learn all about this paradise full of incredible natural wonders. 

Explore Lighthouse Point

Lighthouse Point is a locally beloved stretch of coastline and rock structures on the southernmost point of Eleuthera, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the clear, turquoise waters of The Bahamas. Disney Cruise Line chose this treasured destination to connect guests from around the world with the vibrant culture of The Bahamas.

Pretty in Pink

No filter needed! Prepare to pose on these pink sand beaches, which guests will find all over Eleuthera’s shores. The pink color comes from crushed coral and fragments of shells that mix with the island’s soft, white sand. One of the best places in Eleuthera to see pink sand beaches? Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point!

Pass the Pineapple!

All over Disney Lookout Cay, guests will find hints of an important part of Eleuthera’s history: the pineapple. Eleuthera is known for its long history of pineapple farming, being one of only a few in all The Bahamas with the distinct red soil. Pineapple farming is such an important part of Eleuthera’s history that every year, the island hosts the world-famous Pineapple Festival, bringing visitors and communities together to celebrate the harvest season.

A HOLE Lot of Water

Let’s hop on over to Rock Sound, Eleuthera, where guests will find the Ocean Hole, a naturally forming blue hole that Bahamians believe connects to the ocean through 300,000-year-old caves. Many Rock Sound residents learned how to swim in this beautiful hole, which has a higher salt content that makes it more buoyant than sea water. Some locals say this beautiful space also has incredible, natural healing properties! Ocean Hole and Lighthouse Point Beach both share amazing limestone rock structures, another part of the extraordinary terrain on this beautiful island.

Blue Hole is available as one of many opportunities to explore the beauty of Eleuthera in Disney Lookout Cay’s local Eco Tour port adventures.

Cave of Wildlife Wonders

Not far from Ocean Hole, a natural rock structure called Cathedral Cave has soaring, wide ceilings, cascading tree roots and glittering filtered sunlight. This popular tourist attraction for visitors and Bahamians alike is home to native Bahamian wildlife.

Guests will learn about Bahamian wildlife like this on the beautiful nature trail at Disney Lookout Cay, where they’ll find bronze sculptures of native animals. Plus, Cathedral Cave is also available to visit during Disney Lookout Cay’s port adventures, including the South Eleuthera Eco and Cultural Tour and the South Eleuthera Eco and Historical Tour.

The Glass Window Bridge

One of the most recognizable landmarks in all The Bahamas is on Eleuthera: the Glass Window Bridge. This once natural bridge of land separates the Atlantic Ocean from the stunning, peaceful waters of the Exuma Sound and the 700 islands of the archipelago of The Bahamas. Eleutheran artist Kevin Cooper painted this famous natural wonder, and guests can find his artwork hung in the cabanas and available for purchase as a lithograph to take home as a souvenir from Disney Lookout Cay.

Eleuthera is an unforgettable destination and the perfect place for Disney Cruise Line’s newest retreat that celebrates the beauty and culture of The Bahamas. We have a feeling guests will love it just as much as we do!

It’s time to talk Tiana’s Bayou Adventure merch!

Recently, we announced that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will open at Magic Kingdom Park in Florida on June 28, and now it’s time to talk all a-bayou-t the new merchandise guests can bring home.

The merchandise journey began with Walt Disney Imagineering in 2021, where a team of Imagineers weaved together the story of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure with breathtaking concept art and inspiration from immersion trips to New Orleans. Through connecting with the people, culture, food, and of course, music of New Orleans, the team were able to guide the merchandise creative designers to develop authentic products that bring the story of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure to life for all Guests.

Guests have probably heard the phrase “shop until you drop,” but for this ride and its iconic 50-foot-plummet, they’re going to want to shop before and after they drop. From clothes to home goods, tasty treats and more, there’s something for everyone.

It’s a Joyful Celebration with Bayou Apparel

Find new ‘fits for the whole family with attire featuring the logo for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, as well as Princess Tiana, Louis and some of their new critter friends.

Guests can outfit themselves from head to toe with fireflies, log flumes and fun with the classic adult Spirit Jersey and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure ear headband. And guests are going to need a Louis Cuddleez Plush. Look at his sweet smiling face!

Check out that adorable Interactive Firefly! Just like the fireflies in Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “The Princess and the Frog,” these little friends love to see other fireflies out and about – they will light up when they’re near each other to say hello.

Before guests hop in their log to take a trip into the bayou, they can’t forget the water resistant pouch to keep their phone dry.

Guests can store all their new goodies in a Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Loungefly Mini Backpack featuring  Princess Tiana, Naveen, Mama Odie and Louis.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Plushes and Keepsakes

In addition to those adorable critter plushes, guests can bring home a Tiana plush doll ready for adventure in her new outfit. For fans of that beautiful Tiana Foods tower, this figurine featuring Tiana, Naveen and a few critter friends is the perfect way to add lagniappe (that’s a little something extra!) to their shelves.

Just like Princess Tiana, guests can save up to make their dreams come true with a Restaurant Fund Coffee Can. Before they start filling it up with their loose change, they should be sure to enjoy the sweet chocolate coins inside.

Tiana’s Foods Treats

Princess Tiana is known best for three things: entrepreneurship, community and good food. Guests can sample some delicious eats themselves with a collection of consumables inspired by her culinary successes, like the Mardi Gras Popcorn, the Bananas Foster Milk Chocolate Bar inspired by the New Orleans classic, green apple lollipop and more.

Bring Home the Spice of Life

When Disney Animation filmmakers were dreaming up “The Princess and the Frog,” they took inspiration from legendary New Orleans restaurateur Leah Chase for the character of Princess Tiana.

 As part of the merchandise for Tiana’s new attraction, Walt Disney World will be the first place outside of Dooky Chase’s Restaurant to sell spices from Leah’s family business.

Whip Up Some Magic in the Kitchen

Guests can season their own kitchen with home goods that’ll make them say “c’est bon!” (that’s good!) followed by “bon appétit!”

Imagine sipping delicious chicory coffee out of this Tiana’s Foods mug! We’re particularly excited to add our favorite spices to this adorable spice rack.

Princess Tiana Details

For fans of Disney Animation’s “The Princess and the Frog,” there’s even more merchandise celebrating Tiana’s story as she brought her dreams to life. This beautiful jewelry and new signature headband reminiscent of Princess Tiana’s crown are just as pretty as a magnolia in May.

Guests can add a little art deco inspo to their home with beautiful decor featuring patterns of lily pads and Princess Tiana herself.

Shop Before and After You Drop

Starting June 28, guests can find the collections for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and Disney Animation’s “The Princess and the Frog”-inspired merchandise at the Emporium at Magic Kingdom.

And, shortly after the attraction debuts, the merchandise will hop over to Critter Co-Op in Frontierland where those musical critters Tiana made friends with in the bayou like to hang out in their free time. Guests may even spot some of their charming makeshift instruments constructed from natural materials and some human-made found objectsthroughout the shop. Guests should keep their mobile device handy, because they can use Merchandise Mobile Checkout at both the Emporium and Critter Co-Op.

Guests can also find some of the tasty treats at the Main Street Confectionary. Mmmm-mm! Not to mention, select items will also be available on DisneyStore.com at a later date.

We mean it when we say we’re “almost there” – we can’t wait to ride this thrilling new attraction in our fresh new Tiana’s Bayou Adventure merch.

Stay tuned for even more ways to prepare guests for their trip to the bayou at Walt Disney World Resort on June 28 and later this year at Disneyland Resort … and speaking of Disneyland Resort, guests can also expect to see this merchandise collection full of Tiana and her friends when Tiana’s Bayou Adventure makes its West Coast debut. C’est bon!

Take a look at the Pride Collection merchandise at Walt Disney World.

Take a look at photos from June 1, 2024 of the Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows. It is scheduled to open in December 2024.

June kicks off the start of Pride Month and all month long guests will be able to treat themselves to tasty bites and sips across both Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort. The culinary teams have been hard at work, creating mouthwatering delights that guests will definitely want to try.
