Disney Closing Aerosmith-Branded Roller Coaster After 26 Years, Replacing It With The Muppets’ Electric Mayhem Ride

After 26 years, Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Orlando is retiring the Aerosmith-branded Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, which opened in 1999, to be reimagined with The Muppets’ Electric Mayhem as the new musical theme. The indoor roller coaster will close for an overhaul in spring 2026 and reopen next summer. The new ride will take fans on board “a very fast limousine” to “take a twisting, turning, and screamingly fun road trip across Hollywood to reach the concert in time,” Disney shared in a blog post. “Throughout the journey, you’ll hear the Electric Mayhem playing some of the most iconic, rockin’ hits in your ears to keep the music and adrenaline pumping.” This follows a similar rebranding at Disneyland Paris, where the ride was transformed into Avengers Assemble: Flight Force in 2022. The Aerosmith ride will remain open through the end of 2025 before the transition. (Rolling Stone)
