A new rumor we have heard suggests that Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring the Muppets will open Memorial Day weekend.

While the change from Aerosmith to a Muppets theme has already been confirmed by Disney, the rumored holiday reopening would represent a notably quick turnaround for the attraction’s transformation.

Construction work for the retheme has been moving along very quickly, fueling the speculation that Disney may be targeting a faster-than-expected opening for the updated coaster to please fans. To get this done in a timely manner, Disney closed the pre-show late last year and is altering very little of the attraction itself.

It’s also our understanding that a number of props from Muppet*Vision 3D will likely fill the queue and other spaces in the attraction.

In the new version of the ride, guests still enter G-Force Records on a V.I.P. tour, this time encountering the Electric Mayhem.

G-Force Records has been bought by Scooter’s uncle, real estate tycoon and owner of the Muppet Theatre, J.P. Grosse. He put Scooter in charge, and guests will meet the manager in animatronic form in the new pre-show. There, guests will also see animatronic penguin audio engineers, Miss Piggy and Kermit on screens, and the band.

To reach the Electric Mayhem’s concert on time, guests board limousines altered by Muppet Labs. The ride’s scenery and landmarks will feature a Muppet twist, and guests will hear the Electric Mayhem playing iconic hits.
