Universal Shifts Mummy Refurb Dates After Fast & Furious Coaster Reveal
The six-day move is seen as a capacity play as construction activity increases at the former Rockit site.
Overview
- Universal now lists Revenge of the Mummy as closed January 27–February 2, 2026, with a planned reopening on February 3, after previously scheduling January 21–26.
- The update followed Universal’s confirmation of Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift, an outdoor coaster replacing Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit in 2027.
- Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit has already been demolished and the area is described by outlets as an active construction zone at Universal Studios Florida.
- Coverage interprets the date shift as an effort to stagger closures and keep a major crowd-eater available during a busy winter stretch and early site work.
- Universal has not specified what the short Mummy closure entails, and outlets note such brief windows typically involve routine maintenance and safety checks.
