Walt Disney World have confirmed that Tron Lightcycle Run is opening at Magic Kingdom on April 4
Walt Disney World has now announced that TRON Lightcycle / Run presented by Enterprise will indeed open during the first week of April at the Magic Kingdom, on April 4, 2023 as we predicted earlier.
The story of TRON Lightcycle / Run picks up after “TRON: Legacy” where Kevin’s son, Sam Flynn, has opened a second gateway into a digital realm called the Grid. The first of these portals he created is found at Shanghai Disneyland with the original TRON Lightcycle Power Run.
When you enter the queue at Magic Kingdom, you’ll feel as if you’re digitized and transported to the Grid for a special Lightcycle race.
It’s your Team Blue against the Grid’s menacing Programs, Team Orange. Your goal is to be the first to race through eight Energy Gates and secure victory.
The attraction will be one of the fastest coasters at any Disney theme park in the world.
Before the attraction officially opens, cast members will be the first to enter the Grid during special previews.
Annual Passholders and eligible Disney Vacation Club Members will receive previews as well.
More details on these events will be shared at a later date.
An April 4 opening makes sense, especially as also today, Walt Disney World announced that Happily Ever After nighttime show is coming back on April 3, this would be perfect, with the world media shining a spotlight on the park with two major attractions opening at the same time.
Here is the social media post announcing the opening:
Prepare to enter the Grid. It’s almost your turn. Ready? TRON Lightcycle / Run opens at Magic Kingdom Park on 04/04/23!
Here is all the teasing that Disney Parks have shared since last night....
Last night, Monday, January 9, Walt Disney World revealed a social media teaser for the upcoming TRON Lightcycle Run attraction at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom which gave us a clue to the attractions opening date.
The graphics showed the top rankings for a video game which Disney have captioned with "Need a Clu?"
The high scores included several dates, including the year Disneyland opened in 1955, plus the year that Magic Kingdom opened in 1971.
Another date is when TRON Legacy was released in 2010.
On row 2 was a 2023 date which reads US 13,212,023. Could this be a soft opening date of 3/21/2023, or an official opening on 4/21/2023, or both!
The score on row 10 showed CM 04,482,023... could this be for cast member previews, April 4 through April 8, 2023.
Anyway Walt Disney World have teased us again....
