It’s that time again! The Daps Magic team discusses and then looks back at the top 5 stories that have been covered throughout the year. In the coming days, we will be sharing what we think are the top stories of 2024 from the realm of Disney and positive stuff! Many factors were taken into account when picking these five stories. This included the impact of the story on the past, present, and future of The Walt Disney Company, how it impacted the Disney community, and how it impacted the world beyond Disney. These are just a few of the big picture thoughts that were taken into account when picking the Top 5 Stories of 2024. With all of this in mind, let’s get to it!

#5 – Tiana’s Bayou Adventure

The 5th story of Daps Magic’s Top 5 Stories of 2024 is the opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. The attraction opened first at Walt Disney World Resort on June 28 and then at Disneyland Resort on November 15th. It brings the next chapter of Princess Tiana’s story from The Princess of the Frog to life. This chapter was told in the form of the reimagined attraction Splash Mountain. It includes new characters, new music, and a healthy dose of Disney magic.

This story is important for multiple reasons. First off, it has a message of bringing people together. This includes the people who sometimes are overlooked. It also features Disney’s first Black princess, who also happens to be quite popular. Already seen in shows, parades, and meeting guests in the parks, Tiana’s popularity has continued to grow through the years. There is even a Disney+ series in the works!

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure also marks a step into the future for Disney. It replaces the previous one that had racist stereotypes and negative depictions with one that is positive and inclusive. It also is the first attraction that Disney opened as it moves to supercharge its work and investments in its parks and resorts. The opening of this attraction will most likely be a marker in the history of The Walt Disney Company that is connected with a new era of growth in the parks driven by telling immersive stories.

The opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is just one of the top five stories of the year that were covered by Daps Magic. In the coming days, we will work our way up to the top story of the year!
