Disney Reveals Young Children Will be Prohibited From Riding Tiana’s Bayou Adventure

Disney takes the safety of its young visitors very seriously and therefore, implements height requirements for select rides. These requirements are in place to ensure that children can fully enjoy their experience without any potential hazards. In line with this commitment to safety, the highly anticipated upcoming ride will have a specific height requirement of 40 inches.

While these height restrictions are put in place for the well-being of all guests, it is understandable that some fans may be concerned about the potential disappointment it may cause for young fans of the beloved Disney Princess the ride is based on.

While this might lead to heartbreak for young guests, it is certainly the responsible decision for Disney to make. By implementing height restrictions, Disney aims to provide a safe environment where all visitors can have a magical and unforgettable experience. The rigorous safety protocols and guidelines ensure that the attractions are suitable for individuals of a certain height and physical capability.

In the case of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, this ride promises to take riders on an immersive journey through the enchanting world of Princess Tiana, offering a thrilling and delightful experience for those who meet the height requirement. With its engaging storyline, innovative technology, and captivating scenery, the ride is set to be a highlight for guests of the appropriate height.

Because of the intense drops, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will have a 40-inch height minimum. This is the same height requirement as the ride’s former version, Splash Mountain. This height guideline will be in place at both Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort.

However, unlike Splash Mountain, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is based on a popular Disney Princess movie, Princess and the Frog (2009). Many young fans love this movie and idolize Princess Tiana. Having to turn away these young guests will not be an enjoyable job for Cast Members working the attraction.
