The entrance archway to Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at Disney's Hollywood Studios has been repainted from its original beige colour to grey, matching the attraction's recently painted show building. The repainting work appears to be part of preparations for the attraction's upcoming Muppets retheme, though Disney has not confirmed when this work was completed.
What changes have been made to the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster entrance?
The most noticeable change is the archway spanning the entrance courtyard, which has been transformed from shades of beige to grey. However, some beige colouring remains visible at the bases of the archway supports, suggesting the work may still be in progress.
The lettering at the top of the archway currently reads "G-Force Records Presents Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring", with the "Aerosmith" text having been removed after the previous version of the attraction closed. The Muppets branding will presumably be added before the attraction's May opening date, though this remains unconfirmed.
Which elements of the entrance remain unchanged?
Several components of the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster entrance archway retain their original appearance. The lamps and G-Force Records signs remain mounted on the sides of the archway, and the entrance gate is still painted in the original beige colour scheme.
The gate will presumably also receive the grey paint treatment to match the rest of the entrance, though Disney has not confirmed this detail.
What other refurbishment work is taking place?
Beyond the Disney Hollywood Studios Rock 'n' Roller Coaster entrance archway grey paint work, other elements in the attraction area are receiving attention. The upside-down car display piece mounted in the archway has received a makeover, though specific details of these changes have not been disclosed.
Additionally, the guitar prop located inside the entrance courtyard is currently being repainted as part of the broader refurbishment effort preparing the attraction for its Muppets transformation.
When will the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster starring Muppets open?
Disney has announced that the rethemed attraction will open in May, though a specific date has not been confirmed. The ongoing painting work on the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Muppets archway and other entrance elements suggests preparations are continuing ahead of this opening window.
