TRON Lightcycle / Run Opens April 4th at Magic Kingdom
Disney Parks has confirmed April 4, 2023, as the opening date for the “TRON Lightcycle / Run” roller coaster at Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World.
In addition, Disney revealed more details on the attraction’s backstory and how it relates to the existing TRON attraction at Shanghai Disneyland:
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.
