Critter Co-Op is a colorful Frontierland shop inspired by the musicians and animals featured in Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. Located near the attraction, the store continues the bayou story with Princess Tiana merchandise, playful critter details, and plenty of

New Orleans personality. It feels more themed than a typical attraction shop, making it worth a quick visit even for guests who are not planning to buy anything. 🐸✨


Experience

Shopping at Critter Co-Op feels like stepping into a gathering place created by the bayou critters themselves. Guests can browse merchandise connected to Princess Tiana, The Princess and the Frog, and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, including clothing, toys, accessories, collectibles, and decorative items. The shop is easy to visit after riding the attraction, but guests can enter directly without waiting in the ride queue.


Atmosphere

Critter Co-Op has a cheerful, handmade look filled with rustic materials, musical

touches, and clever details inspired by the talented animals of the bayou. Instruments, signs, artwork, and decorations help the space feel like a real community cooperative rather than an ordinary gift shop. Take time to look above and around the merchandise because some of the most entertaining details are not sitting on the shelves. 🎺🐿️
