Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets Opens May 26, 2026: Opening Date and Set List Revealed

Mark your calendars: Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets officially opens on May 26, 2026 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Disney has confirmed the opening date and revealed the full set list — and it’s a stacked lineup featuring some serious rock and pop collaborations alongside Kermit, Fozzie, and the rest of the gang.

The Official Set List for Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets

The Electric Mayhem Band is taking center stage, and they brought some very special guests along for the ride. Here’s the full set list:

• “Song 2” — The Electric Mayhem
• “Born to Be Wild” — The Electric Mayhem featuring Camilla the Chicken
• “Love Rollercoaster” — The Electric Mayhem featuring Jennifer Hudson & Questlove
• “Rock! Rock! (‘Til You Drop)” — The Electric Mayhem featuring Def Leppard
• “Walking on Sunshine” — The Electric Mayhem featuring Kelly Clarkson

The mix of classic rock (“Born to Be Wild,” “Love Rollercoaster”), Def Leppard’s hard rock energy, and Kelly Clarkson’s feel-good pop anthem makes for a surprisingly eclectic and fun playlist. The nod to Camilla the Chicken as a featured “artist” alongside The Electric Mayhem is peak Muppets chaos, and we are here for it.

What to Expect on Opening Day

May 26th is Memorial Day weekend, which is already one of the busiest times of year at Walt Disney World. Adding a major new attraction opening to the mix means Hollywood Studios is going to be absolutely packed. TouringPlans is projecting wait times at a crowd level 9, with peak actual waits — not the posted sign times, but the real time you’ll spend in queue — reaching close to 100 minutes on opening day.

If you’re planning to be there for opening day, here are a few tips to help manage the crowd:

• Use Early Theme Park Entry if you’re staying at a Disney Resort hotel — get in 30 minutes early and head straight to Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster before the crowds build.
• Check the My Disney Experience app for any virtual queue or Lightning Lane options that may be in place at opening.
• If you can’t get on it opening week, don’t sweat it — wait times will settle into a more manageable range within the first few weeks.

A Long Time Coming

Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster has been closed for the Muppets re-theme for a while now, and the wait is almost over. The combination of a beloved Muppets IP, The Electric Mayhem as the ride’s musical backbone, and a genuinely fun set list bodes well for this being a crowd-pleaser for both Muppets superfans and first-timers alike. May 26th can’t get here fast enough.

I’m no stranger to Disney planning, as a Disneyland magic key holder and DVC member. I’m the person people ask for trip planning advice. But I had never been on a Disney cruise, and had heard great about Nate and decided to reach out. I’m so glad I did because we could not have been happier with our experience. His tips and insights were incredibly helpful, and he was incredibly responsive any time we had a question. Who do the Disney experts turn to when they need help? Nate, that’s who.

We’ll definitely be using him again.

Our experience working with Nate as our Disney vacation planner was exceptional. He was responsive and thorough. He gave us insights that made the trip go much more smoothly. We were able to really relax and focus on quality time as a family and have so much fun doing it! I will definitely reach out for any future trips.

Could not have wanted or expected more from Nate, our Distrips and More agent as we planned our 2025 Disney World trip. Nate was VERY responsive to emails and texts and more than willing to do whatever he could to guide us and answer our questions.  On several occasions I emailed him over the weekend not expecting a response until Monday but each time he responded before the weekend was over.  He even participated in a Zoom session with our group of five seniors as we planned our trip. He also helped us at the 11th hour when we added a family member to our travel group less than a month before our trip.  Without a doubt, I will reach out to Nate when I'm ready to plan my next trip to Disney World!

We are so thankful we used Nate to plan not only our first Disney trip, but also our second. He made the process so easy for us, especially for us since it was our first time going. There was a lot to consider and many decisions to make, such as where to stay, when to go, and what to experience. Nate really helped us narrow down what we wanted to do overall, but he didn’t stop there. He provided detailed guides to help us navigate the airport and find our transportation to the resort, as well as a guide to explore the resorts and make sure we saw the best Christmas decorations. One of the many amazing things he also did was set up our dinner reservations for us. This saved us so much stress and allowed us to get some of our top choices. From the moment we landed in Orlando to the moment we headed back home, he made sure everything went smoothly. You truly can’t go wrong with going to him for your next trip.

Nate was absolutely the best planner I have ever had.  Will most definitely be using him again.   He took care of everything and kept me on track.  Was so very helpful in making all the dining reservations and everything.   Can't thank him enough.   He made our trip completely stress free!

Nathan has been an amazing trip planner for me! So helpful and responsive. I am a very type A person -- so someone who is even more on top of their game than me -- is so so appreciated! Nathan has booked 3 trips for me (1 completed 2 pending) and it was perfection. Thanks again!

Nate has helped us with our vacation planning for the last couple of years and we couldn't be happier with his service and expertise. We've used other travel agents in the past and none of them have done as phenomenal a job to make sure every detail is taken care of as he has. Switching to Nate was one of the best decisions we've ever made. He's always quick to answer questions and works tirelessly to make sure we get everything we want from our trips. Plus, he's just a genuinely great person who is wonderful to work with. Whether you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, a Disney Cruise, or any other vacation, Nate is the guy you want putting it all together! Five stars across the board!
