From the runaway thrills of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad to the wild world of Zootopia: Better Zoogether! and the high-speed antics of Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets, new adventures are on the horizon at Walt Disney World Resort. Your clients can look forward to new attractions and reimagined favorites beginning later this year and continuing into 2026.
Zootopia: Better Zoogether!
Launching Nov. 7, 2025, Zootopia: Better Zoogether! is an all-new 4D experience at the Tree of Life Theater in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park. Inspired by Disney Animation’s hit films Zootopia and the upcoming Zootopia 2, the show celebrates “Zoogether Day,” a holiday honoring the unity of the city’s diverse biomes.
Guests will join Judy Hopps, Nick Wilde and a new original character—your host Heidi Howler—for a lively watch party filled with performances and surprises. Outside the theater, visitors can also meet Judy and Nick in their updated looks from Zootopia 2 at the brand-new Zoogether Day Gathering Spot character greeting area.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
In 2026, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad will reopen at Magic Kingdom Park with refreshed tracks, effects and storytelling enhancements. While the classic twists and turns remain, the attraction will introduce new magic, including a journey through the reimagined Rainbow Caverns, a natural wonder with a few surprises.
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets
Also debuting in 2026, Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets will take over Disney’s Hollywood Studios for a high-energy concert experience. Featuring Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem, this reimagined ride brings wild Muppet humor, psychedelic theming and a brand-new storyline to the iconic indoor coaster.
Guests will join Scooter and the penguin audio crew as they rush to get the band across town to their fans. Thanks to Muppet Labs and a supersonic limousine, riders will speed through the city while rocking out to Electric Mayhem’s biggest hits.
The excitement doesn’t stop there. Additional Disney World 2026 attractions and updates include:
- A refreshed gameplay experience at Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin in Magic Kingdom
- A brand-new adventure featuring The Mandalorian and Grogu in Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
- The highly anticipated debut of The Magic of Disney Animation at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
