Disney Sets Closing Timeline for Muppets Area

Exciting changes are coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios! Disney has announced a closing timeline for the current Muppets area, paving the way for a thrilling new land based on the beloved Pixar film, Monsters, Inc.

The Grand Avenue area will begin a phased closure in May.

Melrose’s Ristorante Italiano will serve its last meal on May 10th.

Following this, Muppet*Vision 3D and PizzeRizzo will close their doors on June 7th.

But don’t worry! The Muppets aren’t disappearing entirely!

Kermit, Miss Piggy, and the rest of the gang will be relocating to Sunset Boulevard. They’ll be taking over Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, transforming it into a high-energy musical experience featuring the Muppets and some of music’s biggest stars. This will be the first Disney ride to feature The Muppets, promising a unique blend of laughter, screams, and iconic Muppet humor.
