Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets Reveals New Story Details, Set List Tease, and Courtyard Redesign

Disney has shared exciting new details about Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets, coming to Hollywood Studios in summer 2026. The revamped attraction will feature the Electric Mayhem band, a reimagined G-Force Records recording studio, and a psychedelic new guitar design in the courtyard.

Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets is roaring closer to its summer 2026 debut at Disney's Hollywood Studios, and today Disney pulled back the curtain on the attraction's storyline, characters, and first confirmed track on the ride's set list.

The Electric Mayhem Take Center Stage at G-Force Records

The premise puts guests right in the middle of a classic Muppet catastrophe. The Electric Mayhem are headlining their biggest Hollywood concert ever, with every A-lister in attendance waiting to see Animal, Dr. Teeth, and the rest of the band bring the house down. The only problem? The band is nowhere near the venue.

Instead, they're across town at G-Force Records, the legendary rock and roll recording studio that has recently come under new management -- The Muppets themselves. The studio acquisition was made possible by Scooter's uncle, real estate tycoon and Muppet Theatre owner J.P. Grosse (who really puts the "G" in G-Force). Inside, guests will discover the Electric Mayhem cranking out tunes alongside the finest audio engineers in the business -- all penguins, naturally -- while Scooter desperately tries to convince the band to stop jamming and get to their increasingly restless fans.

A Psychedelic New Look for the Courtyard Guitar

Fans of the attraction's iconic oversized guitar outside the building will be thrilled to know it's getting a Muppet makeover. A vibrant, psychedelic new design -- inspired by a classic Muppet car paint job -- will grace the bottom of the guitar, while the piano motif at the base will feature a golden key as a nod to Dr. Teeth himself.

First Track Revealed: "Song 2" by The Electric Mayhem

Disney is rolling out the ride's set list one track at a time, and the first confirmed song is "Song 2" performed by The Electric Mayhem. This will be one of the tracks guests hear blasting through their on-board speakers as they rocket through the attraction's signature launch and inversions. More songs will be revealed in the coming days, all building toward a major announcement on April 16.

A Muppet-Powered Road Trip Across Hollywood

The ride experience itself sends guests on a twisting, turning, high-speed limousine road trip across Hollywood -- courtesy of Muppet Labs -- to reach the concert in time. The iconic scenery and landmarks of Tinseltown will feature a distinctly Muppet twist when the attraction opens, and throughout the journey, the Electric Mayhem's greatest hits will keep the adrenaline pumping through riders' on-board speakers.

What This Means for Disney Fans

This reimagining breathes entirely new life into one of Hollywood Studios' most beloved thrill rides. The original Aerosmith version was a fan favorite for decades, and replacing it with The Muppets -- a franchise with universal appeal and legendary comedic energy -- signals Disney's confidence in the IP's staying power. With the storyline details now revealed and the set list being teased track by track, expect excitement to build rapidly as we approach the summer 2026 opening. Keep an eye on April 16 for what Disney is calling a "major announcement" -- likely a full set list reveal or opening date confirmation.
