What it is

A family roller coaster through Andy's backyard on a stretched-out Slinky Dog, with two launches, quick turns and great views of Toy Story Land. Bright, fun, and not too scary.

Thrill level: Moderate (3/5) · launched start · must be 38 in (97 cm) or taller

Opened: 30 June 2018 (8 years ago)

Best time to ride

Quietest: around 10pm (typically ~30 min posted). Busiest: around 12pm (~70 min). In the first 15 minutes after the park opens it typically posts ~55 min.

Typical means the median posted wait across every day in our log at that hour; crowd level, weather and breakdowns move it. For a specific date, the planner adjusts for that day’s forecast crowd.

Posted vs real wait

Disney’s posted waits run high. For Slinky Dog Dash, a posted 60 minutes at 2pm has typically meant about 50 minutes in line, and at 8pm about 36 (from timed waits people recorded, 2015–2021 — before today’s Lightning Lane system, so treat it as an estimate). DisneyIQ shows both numbers on the live board.

Did you know?

It opened with Toy Story Land.

The track is laid out as if Andy built it from a Mega Coaster Play Kit.
