The Happy Ride with Baymax - Special Version

Known for its upbeat music, this spinning attraction is the world’s first attraction themed to the Walt Disney Animation Studios film Big Hero 6. In addition to the original six songs that are usually played, a new song by Mrs. GREEN APPLE will be added for a limited period in this special version. This is also the first time that a song by a Japanese musical artist is played at a Tokyo Disney Resort attraction.

 In this attraction, Baymax’s nursebot friends pull the vehicle, whirling guests around in unexpected and thrilling ways. With the addition of the new song, guests can expect even more smiles and a heightened “level of happiness."

Note that the limited-time song will be added to the existing playlist and played at random. A specific song cannot be selected during the experience.
