Disney World is making changes to the Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith ride at Hollywood Studios to transform it into a Muppets-themed attraction. The pre-show entertainment video featuring Aerosmith has been permanently removed, signaling the beginning of the transformation. The new Muppets-themed attraction is set to open in Summer 2026, featuring the Electric Mayhem band, penguins as audio engineers, and Scooter rushing to get the band on stage.
The original Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith ride opened in 1999 and featured a thrilling limousine ride across town to catch a concert.

The iconic large red guitar outside the building will also receive a vibrant new design.
The Muppets-themed transformation of the ride will take guests on a fun road trip across Hollywood to reach a concert in time. The Electric Mayhem band will provide the soundtrack, keeping the music and adrenaline pumping throughout the journey. The new attraction promises a twist on the original ride experience, offering a fresh and exciting adventure for visitors.
