Disney Sets Muppets Rock 'n' Roller Coaster as Tier 1 Lightning Lane as Exterior Makeover Begins

Tier placement signals high demand planning for guests using Lightning Lane at Hollywood Studios.

Overview

  • The Walt Disney World website now lists Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets as a Tier 1 Lightning Lane Multi Pass attraction for its summer 2026 opening.
  • Construction walls and scrims surround the giant guitar, Aerosmith branding has been removed, and on-site concept art teases an Electric Mayhem aesthetic.
  • The upside-down entrance limousine is being repainted with red and orange flames, with work progressing side by side on the decorative car.
  • Walt Disney Imagineering filed a Notice of Commencement for the nearby Shop 'N' Roll kiosk, contracting InterAmerica Stage and pointing to a thematic update.
  • The courtyard remains accessible for guests, though a Braille park map still lists the Aerosmith version as updates roll out across park materials.
