In recent news, D23 recently made a list of every Disney experience to look forward to in 2022. However, there’s one curious omission. The list did not include Disney World’s Tron Lightcycle Run!
The ride is a Magic Kingdom attraction currently under construction. Many were hoping to see the ride open in late 2022, but now it seems possible that the ride may not open to guests until 2023.
For those unfamiliar with TRON or the ride; the first TRON attraction debuted at Shanghai Disneyland when the park opened in 2016. The ride named “TRON Lightcycle Power Run” is a roller coaster adventure through a semi-enclosed structure in Tomorrowland, Shanghai Disneyland. However, it’s official name for the Magic Kingdom is Tron Lightcycle Run!

The Ultimate Competition
Experience high-speed thrills and chills as the Grid comes alive in a heart-pounding race for survival. Created as a friendly way for “Programs” and “Users” to interact, the Power Run pits the team against the team in the quintessential quest to capture 8 Energy Gates and triumph over opponents.
Prepare for digitization after entering the portal—this is your access to the energy, lights, and excitement of TRON’s high-tech universe. As you leave the real world behind, you’ll proceed to the games as a member of Team Blue, ready to compete against some of the Grid’s most menacing Programs.
Bring Your A-Game to the Mainframe
Adrenaline-pumping music, lights, and 3-D graphics inspire a furious surge toward the winner’s circle. Traverse TRON’s electrifying multi-sensory environment as your speed, dip, and dive through digitized darkness on one of the fastest indoor roller coasters in Disney theme park history.
Sync Chamber
Step inside the techno-style zone featuring glowing glass rails, a real-time Raceview, and blue laser lights that etch patterns through space—this is where Users synchronize with their Lightcycles. Feel the power activating as you jump on, grab the handles, and brace to face an unknown digital frontier.
Launcher-Upload Conduit
Anticipation heightens as the Lightcycles lunge forward with sound effects building to a feverish pitch. Suddenly, you’re throttling through a tunnel of flashing markers and, just as quickly, plummeting onto a turbo-charged track known as the Grid!
The Grid
Filled with brilliantly illuminated shapes and sleek, color-changing TRON iconography, this game-world “gravity box” seems to rev harder with enhanced energy as Lightcycles catapult past each Gate. Will Team Blue capture them all and take the championship? See if you can defeat the Programs, survive the Power Run and make your way back to the real world!
