When Disney World's new TRON Lightcycle / Run roller coaster opens at Magic Kingdom on 4 April, riders will be required to use lockers for larger items.

For the first time in one of Disney's US theme parks, a digitised locker system will be used, with guests able to store bags and loose items while they ride TRON Lightcycle / Run.


These lockers can be paired with the MagicBand, MagicBand+ or ticket media, allowing visitors to easily lock and reopen them. Guests without a MagicBand or other ticket media will be given a card to use a locker.

All large items must be placed in a locker, and smaller items such as mobile phones, glasses or wallets must be put in a compartment on the ride vehicle.

TRON Lightcycle / Run will be the fastestVekoma coaster at Magic Kingdom, and one of the fastest coasters at any Disney park in the world.

Shanghai Disneyland offers a similar attraction, called Tron Lightcycle Power Run, which launched on the park’s opening day in 2016.

When the coaster opens, it will use a virtual queue. This can be accessed via the My Disney Experience app. There will be no standby queue.

Additionally, guests may be able to purchase individual Lightning Lane entry on the app. They can check the app on the day of their visit for pricing and availability.

New coaster to use virtual queue

Located in Tomorrowland, TRON Lightcycle / Runhas a train of two-wheeled Lightcycles. Guests enjoy a race through the ‘digital frontier’, and the storyline picks up after 2010 filmTron: Legacy.
