“The Princess and the Frog” is getting a home at WDW Magic Kingdom as early as this Summer (2024): Bayou Adventure.

Disney indicated that Disneyland Park (California) should get it later on in 2024, but didn’t specify when.

Some of the features we are looking forward to are:

• New Orleans music: Jazz & zydeco, to be specific!
