TRON Lightcycle / Run wait times

Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World · typical posted waits from our own wait log, updated daily

Right now: TRON Lightcycle / Run is down.

What it is

A launched roller coaster where you ride hunched forward on a motorbike-style "lightcycle", blasting out under a glowing canopy and then into the dark, neon world of the Grid. The fastest coaster at Walt Disney World.

Thrill level: Intense (5/5) · launched start · high speed · mostly in the dark · must be 48 in (122 cm) or taller

Opened: 4 April 2023 (3 years ago)

Best time to ride

Quietest: around 8am (typically ~35 min posted). Busiest: around 8pm (~75 min). In the first 15 minutes after the park opens it typically posts ~45 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 TRON Lightcycle / Run, a posted 60 minutes at 2pm has typically meant about 44 minutes in line, and at 8pm about 40 (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.
