Overview of TRON Lightcycle Run at Magic Kingdom Park
First announced in 2017, TRON Lightcycle Run will be a thrilling semi-indoor coaster at Magic Kingdom. Based on the "TRON" franchise and 2010 Disney film, "TRON: Legacy," join Team Blue and race through the dark new world on your very own Lightcycle motorbike!
Another version of this attraction debuted at Shanghai Disneyland in 2016. Both versions reach up to nearly 60 miles an hour, making them some of the fastest Disney coasters in the world!
Recently announced, TRON will open April 4, 2023! Beforehand, there will be cast member previews as well as early preview opportunities for annual passholders and Disney Vacation Club members.
Location of TRON Lightcycle Run at Magic Kingdom
TRON Lightcycle Run is located in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom. When first arriving at the park, head down Main Street, U.S.A. and turn right toward the Tomorrowland bridge.
TRON is located right next to Space Mountain and behind Tomorrowland Speedway. Once open, there will be a walkway to the left of the Tomorrowland Light & Power Company shop and Space Mountain exit (where the construction walls currently are).

Accessing TRON Lightcycle Run at Magic Kingdom
When TRON Lightcycle Run does open at Magic Kingdom, the big question is how will guests be able to ride it?
When Tron opens, it will utilize a virtual queue in place of a standby queue. This has occurred over the past few years with new attractions like Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, Remy's Ratatouille Adventure and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. Each day, guests with valid admission and a Magic Kingdom park reservation will be able to attempt to join the virtual queue for Tron.
TRON will also be offered as an individual Lightning Lane selection, available for day-of purchase via Disney Genie+.
