New Souvenir Lands for Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring the Muppets
Walt Disney World wasted no time in bringing the Muppets to Rock 'n' Roller Coaster. You do not want to miss this brand new souvenir.
Muppet Vision Closure
Disney's Hollywood Studios has undergone many changes over the years. Muppet Vision 3D was the final major project that Jim Henson directed before he passed in 1990. It originally opened on May 16, 1991.
This film is special to many Muppet and Disney fans who have enjoyed it for several decades, and as a final masterpiece created by Jim Henson.
When Disney originally shared that the Muppet Courtyard would close to make room for a Monsters Inc.-themed land, this news was somewhat bittersweet.
Muppets Rock 'n' Roller Coaster
On Sunday, Rock 'n' Roller Coaster starring Aerosmith officially closed on Sunday, March 1, 2026.
The attraction building remains on the My Disney Experience app, but the iconic guitar and stretch limo at the entrance have been removed. The physical park map shows the change, "Future Home of Rock 'n' Roller Coaster starring The Muppets."
