Disneyland’s Splash Mountain opened on July 17, 1989. The attraction was themed to a Disney film from the 1940’s called Song of the South, and featured the catchy “Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah” song. The story of the ride follows Brer Rabbit as he tries to leave his troubles behind in the briar patch. Brer Fox and Brer Bear have other ideas and try to catch Brer Rabbit. He ends up getting away and returning to his home sweet home.
Many of the critters in the cast originally made their Disneyland park debut at the classic show America Sings, where they performed patriotic melodies in Tomorrowland from 1974 to 1988.
The Disneyland website describes the ride as:
“A Hare-Raising Adventure
Hop inside a hollow log and float through a colorful bayou as you follow happy-go-lucky Br’er Rabbit to his “laughing place.” But be warned: Br’er Bear and Br’er Fox are in hot pursuit of this wayward hare.
Glide past over 100 talking, singing, storytelling Audio-Animatronics critters who inhabit Splash Mountain and offer up their own slice of down-home culture. Sing along to classic Disney ditties, including “Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah.”
Then, brace yourself for the big finale—this musical cruise ends in a thrilling 5-story splashdown!”
Tomorrow, May 31, the ride will be closed to begin transforming into the new attraction, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. The new ride will open in late 2024.
