She realizes that her celebration is missing a key ingredient and needs the guests' help to find it, as they join her and Louis on a trip to the bayou. On the day that guests visit, it is Carnival season and Tiana is hosting a celebration for the people of New Orleans. To help her community, Tiana has created an employee-owned Food cooperative called Tiana's Foods, built on a salt dome that she has purchased. The attraction is set a year after the events of The Princess and the Frog. To prepare for the attraction, the Imagineering team took several research trips to Louisiana, visiting locations such as the French Market and bayous, consulted with cultural institutions, chefs, academics, musicians, and also experienced Mardi Gras in New Orleans. In addition, the new characters for the ride were designed by Imagineer Laura West, while Eric Goldberg, who animated Louis in the film, was consulted for the character's inclusion. Since the setting of Tiana's Bayou Adventure is New Orleans, which is very much a flat city, the Imagineers have stated that the attraction's elevation is explained by having it take place on a salt dome, inspired by Avery Island in Louisiana.
