TRON: Lightcycle / Run at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom allows guests the chance to zoom into the Grid. Currently, guest who want to experience this attraction need to utilize a virtual queue. However, this will change on September 9, 2024. On this day, the attraction will begin to give guests the chance to experience the attraction via a standby queue. They can also experience the attraction by purchasing a Lightning Lane Single Pass.
Until the arrival of the standby queue on September 9, 2024, guests will still need to utilize the virtual queue via the My Disney Experience app or by purchasing a Lightning Lane Single Pass.
The following notice was found on the Walt Disney World website announcing the change:

From the Big Screen to the Theme Park
In 1982, Disney made filmmaking history with TRON, the first production of its kind to mix live action with computer-generated visuals and backlit animation. This iconic film went on to inspire video games, comic books, an animated series and the 2010 sequel TRON: Legacy—as well as this Disney theme park attraction.
