The final countdown is on for Muppet Vision 3D, Pizzarizzo, and the Muppet Courtyard at Walt Disney World.
The Muppet specific area will entirely close on June 8, 2025.
Phase one, which closes down Mama Melrose and part of the Courtyard, starts in just a few days on May 11, 2025.
Muppet Vision 3D, Pizzarizzo, and the rest of the Muppet Courtyard will be officially closed on June 8, 2025.
The area is being shut down to make room for the new Monsters Inc. coaster and land. Disney is even going to put a new Monsters Inc. show in the Muppet Vision 3D building. That announcement did not go over well with fans.
The Muppets will not be entirely removed from Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Kermit and friends are not being entirely removed from the park. Instead, they will be added to the Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster.
The current version features Aerosmith, but will be changed to Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem band, along with current musical stars for a “music festival.”
Which will likely age worse than Aerosmith did.
There is still time!
If you are wanting to visit the Muppets in the Muppet Courtyard one last time you have about a month to do so.
Sadly, most of us can’t just drop everything and hop down to Walt Disney World to visit it before it’s gone. But there are plenty of POV videos online to remember it by.
I just hope the replacement is good.
Controversial opinion, but I think The Great Movie Ride was far superior to Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway.
