TRON Update: Pathway Progress, Installation of New Theming Elements Continues

    TRON Lightcycle Run is likely on track for a 2023 opening at Magic Kingdom. Disney has been largely silent on the progress of the attraction, with the exception of Disney Parks Chairman Josh D’Amaro saying in November 2021 that the attraction was “coming soon”. Since then, Disney D23 has snubbed TRON from its list of attractions and experiences that are coming in 2022, and progress continues at a measured pace.

    Since our last update, we can see that progress has been made on the walkway that guests will take from near Space Mountain to the TRON Lightcycle Run coaster. First, here’s a look at concept art for the area.

    Now, here’s a look at the area as of this morning.

    It looks like the pathway now connects across the railroad tracks, starting to form the tunnel that the railroad will pass under when the project is completed. The railroad will pass between the two support columns in the middle of the photo below, basically where the truck is parked.

    Around the perimeter of the canopy, new theming elements continue to be installed.

    Work is also continuing on the main entrance for the attraction. Here’s what it will look like when completed, followed by construction photos from this morning.

    Again, the project is moving along at a slow, measured pace and we don’t expect that it is “coming soon”. If you are planning a vacation, it looks like a very late 2022 or even 2023 opening is most likely.
