Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets will open as a tier one Lightning Lane Multi Pass ride at Disney’s Hollywood Studios this summer. The attraction replaces the former Aerosmith-themed version, which closed permanently on March 2, 2026. This classification adds competition to booking high-demand rides in the park.
Walt Disney World has ended a short-lived return of a free Lightning Lane pass for Pirates of the Caribbean, offered as a prize for completing the A Pirate’s Adventure: Treasures of the Seven Seas scavenger hunt at Magic Kingdom. The perk, absent since before the 2020 pandemic, vanished days after going viral on TikTok. Cast members cited abuse by guests as the reason for its removal on April 19.
