Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets officially opens on Tuesday, May 26th at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, but thanks to Cast Member previews and Annual Passholder previews, a few exclusive groups have been able to ride early.
So many of our followers have asked us if the ride is smoother than the Aerosmith version. After all, The Muppets are a family-friendly brand, and Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster is one of the most intense roller coasters in Disney Parks. Since we’ve been on the ride already, we’re finally answering that question!
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets uses the exact same track and ride vehicles as the former Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith. Disney has confirmed that the track didn’t change at all, but we still saw some people online saying they thought the new track was smoother than the Aerosmith version!
One of our team members said that the ride felt exactly the same as the previous version, but a few people disagreed. While it’s the exact same track as the Aerosmith version, we noticed that the first four rows are a smoother experience than the middle and back rows. The front rows feel just as fast, but it rattles you around a bit less, which makes it feel smoother!
If you struggled riding Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith, then the Muppets version of the ride is exactly the same. But for a less intense experience, ask to sit in rows one through four when you board the ride! One of our team members rode in both the front row and back row, and the front row was significantly less shaky.
To ride Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets yourself, it opens at Hollywood Studios on Tuesday, May 26th. Stay tuned to Disney Food Blog for more Disney World news!
