Disney Parks is reimagining Rockin' Roller Coaster at Hollywood Studios as Rockin' Roller Coaster starring the Muppets, set to open on May 26, 2026. The attraction will feature a new rock-charged soundtrack performed by The Electric Mayhem, with covers of classic rock songs like 'Born to Be Wild' (Steppenwolf), 'Song 2' (Blur), 'Love Rollercoaster' (with Jennifer Hudson and Questlove), 'Rock, Rock Till You Drop' (with Def Leppard), and 'Walking on Sunshine' (with Kelly Clarkson). The experience will include immersive pre-shows, VIP concert ambiance, and dynamic audio synced to ride elements like launches and inversions. The podcast host and guest Kelly from KMV Travel share their excitement after previewing the first two tracks, praising the perfect timing of music with ride dynamics and the humor of Animal’s banter. They also speculate on future additions like Miss Piggy’s cameo and potential limited-time soundtracks, celebrating the blend of nostalgia, innovation, and Muppet charm. The transformation maintains the original ride’s queue and exit experiences while injecting fresh energy through the Muppets’ comedic flair and musical reinterpretations.
