Disney Announces PREVIEWS for Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets

There’s a NEW ride coming soon to Hollywood Studios!

Rock ‘n Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets

Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith closed earlier this year to make way for the new Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets. This version of the ride is going to feature some fan-favorite characters and a bangin’ soundtrack, but now we know we may get to ride it EARLY!

The opening date for the coaster is set for May 26th, 2026. However, in the announcement, Disney included this tidbit at the end — “stay tuned for even more surprises still to come, including previews for cast members, eligible Disney Vacation Club Members, and Annual Passholders!”

We’ve often seen rides offer previews to select groups before they open. We most recently saw it with Cast Member previews at Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin after its changes. Once Disney drops the details, we’ll pass them along. Sometimes previews require some kind of booking or reservation process.

The backstory of this new ride has you arriving at The Electric Mayhem’s “biggest night yet.” The courtyard will feature a revamped version of the iconic guitar, the interior of G-Force Records is getting a colorful makeover, and if you keep your eyes peeled, you may even spot several celebrity cameos in the queue and merchandise shop!

In the preshow, you’ll find The Electric Mayhem playing their hit song “Can You Picture That?” along with the first-ever audio-animatronic figure of Scooter. Scooter and the penguins are doing their best to convince The Electric Mayhem that it’s time to leave the studio and get to their concert — can they even make it in time?

Disney says that to make it to the show, we’ll board the newest creation from Muppet Labs, “a super-powered vehicle in the alleyway just behind Studio C known as the Lengthy Immediate Motion Object (L.I.M.O.)!” Sounds like we’re going to go FAST.
