The transformation of Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets continues at Disney's Hollywood Studios, with significant grey paint progress visible on the attraction building as it heads towards its 26th May 2026 opening date.
Latest construction photos from 17th April show the grey colour scheme steadily replacing the original tan exterior, marking another milestone in the beloved attraction's complete Muppets makeover.
What's New with Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Muppets Construction Progress?
During a recent visit to Disney's Hollywood Studios, construction crews have made notable headway on the exterior renovation work. The grey paint application has expanded from the left side of the building to encompass the central sections as well, creating a dramatic visual transformation from the previous tan colour scheme.
The iconic upside-down guitar feature has also received attention, with workers applying a glossy topcoat that replaces the previous matte finish. This attention to detail demonstrates Disney's commitment to refreshing every aspect of the attraction for its Muppets debut.
Comparing photographs from consecutive days reveals the rapid pace of work, with crews systematically covering the building's facade in preparation for the grand reopening next month.
When Does Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets Open?
Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets is scheduled to officially open on 26th May 2026, replacing the former Aerosmith-themed version that permanently closed on 1st March. The extensive refurbishment has transformed the high-speed indoor coaster into a Muppets musical experience whilst maintaining the thrilling launch and inversions that made the original so popular.
British families planning their Walt Disney World holidays will find the new attraction adds fresh excitement to Disney's Hollywood Studios, complementing other recent additions and ongoing park improvements.
What Can Guests Expect from the New Muppets Roller Coaster?
The reimagined attraction retains the core concept of taking guests on a VIP tour through G-Force Records, but now the studio has been completely taken over by The Muppets' Electric Mayhem band. Dr. Teeth, Animal, Floyd Pepper, Janice, Zoot, and Lips replace Aerosmith as the featured musicians, bringing their signature chaotic energy to the high-speed experience.
