Splash Mountain Ride Permanently Closing at Disneyland Amid Controversy Over Racist Themes

A TikTok video shows a Disneyland guest exiting a boat on Splash Mountain while the ride was moving.
Disneyland's Splash Mountain attraction will close permanently on May 31, 2023 to be rethemed to Tiana's Bayou Adventure based on The Princess and the Frog.
Massive crowds are visiting Disneyland to ride Splash Mountain one last time before it closes forever.
Splash Mountain has faced controversy over racist elements from the film Song of the South, leading Disney World and now Disneyland to close the ride.
Tiana's Bayou Adventure will replace Splash Mountain in 2023 with a theme based on the first Black Disney Princess.
