8/15 Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room Opens! Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

We'd known yesterday that Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room had soft-opened, but we decided to wait for the official first show. There was a possibilty this morning that it'd be open at 9am, but we were told that the call had been made to wait until 10am. The line formed quickly, and held steady for at least several hours.

We have a full video in high definition here!

We arrived to the Magic Kingdom at 9am for opening:

We were among the first guests to the Enchanted Tiki Room, though the line stretched around Aladdin's Magic Carpets by the time it opened.

The crowd in the morning was mostly Disney fans, and everyone was friendly and patient while waiting up to an hour for the attraction to open. Photos I took during this time:
