The attraction went down yesterday, June 22, around 4:30 pm and did not reopen for the remainder of the day. As of 2:15 pm today, June 23, the ride remains closed with no indication of when it will reopen.

Disney has not released any information on the cause of the closure.

Timeline of the Outage

The attraction closed unexpectedly yesterday afternoon at approximately 4:30 pm. Guests in the park for the evening were unable to ride, and the attraction did not reopen before park close.

This morning the ride remained down at park opening and has stayed closed throughout the day. The outage now spans more than 20 hours with no confirmed reopening timeframe.

Likely Cause

While Disney has not confirmed the reason for the extended closure, a technical issue with the ride system is the most probable explanation. Rock 'n' Roller Coaster is a complex attraction with a high-speed linear induction motor launch system, and technical issues requiring extended maintenance periods are not uncommon for coaster attractions of this type.

The length of the outage - spanning overnight and into the following afternoon - suggests the issue may require more significant attention than a routine reset or minor fix.

Still a New Attraction

Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets only officially opened to the public on May 26, 2026, making this extended outage less than a month into the attraction's public run. New attractions occasionally experience teething issues in the weeks following opening as the ride system is put through its paces under full guest capacity conditions.
