I have the BEST DISNEY WORLD NEWS EVER!!!
We are inching closer and closer to opening a new attraction, and while it feels like I’ve been counting down for MONTHS, we are about one week away from life-changing in Hollywood Studios. Grab your band members, your most psychedelic tie-dye, and your guitars because we are moving right along!
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets will be opening in Hollywood Studios on May 26th, which is about a week away. Yes, The Muppets will officially be back in Disney World, and I couldn’t be more excited to jam out with the band and say hi to Kermit and Scooter while I’m at it.
Now, because I’m not the only person who’s super excited about this roller coaster, we’re expecting some pretty big crowds when it opens. If you need to ride it on opening day, you might want to secure a Lightning Lane with a Multi Pass. We’re expecting this Lightning Lane to sell out quickly, so you’ll want to be ready on your phone to grab it. Disney World hotel guests get to purchase Lightning Lanes a little earlier than non-guests, too, so if you’re staying on property, you’ll definitely want to take advantage of this.
You should also plan on showing up early and waiting in a long line. Grab your book, headphones, snacks, and anything else you need to be able to hang out in the line for a bit.
Disney also gave us a sneak peek at some of the souvenirs coming to the gift shop at the end of the ride, and if you’re anything like me, you’ll probably want to bring some extra gift cards and grab some before they sell out. It’s possible this merchandise will sell out fast, but Disney is usually pretty good at restocking the items. If you know you need it the first week, we’d head straight there. There will likely be long lines here too, so you’ll need to budget some extra time.
You can’t forget about the ride photo, too! Make sure your Memory Maker (aka how you get photos during your trip) is up to date and associated with your account.
Sounds like we’re ready to rock! Don’t forget that the attraction opens on May 26th in Hollywood Studios, and keep following Disney Food Blog for all the details you need for opening day and whenever your next visit is.
