This Hollywood Studios Ride Can’t Catch a Break

Poor Disney’s Hollywood Studios has been going THROUGH IT recently.

Hollywood Studios

On top of huge holiday crowds, last week, we saw Rise of the Resistance go down AND have a 4-hour wait, along with popular attractions like Slinky Dog Dash, Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy, and Tower of Terror temporarily close. Now we’re into a new week and another Hollywood Studios ride is STILL having a rough time and we’ve got all the deets!

Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster in Hollywood Studios has closed yet again! The iconic roller coaster closed several times last week and continues to experience issues. Cast Members let us know that maintenance is in the building trying to correct computer glitches.

Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster is Closed

The last time the ride opened was early yesterday morning for around 20 minutes, but it has been shut down since. If maintenance is able to correct the issue, Cast Members told us it could take up to around two hours afterward to open the ride. Remember to be kind because this is something Cast Members have no control over!

Still closed

Cast Members were blowing bubbles near the entrance. Keep in mind that if you’re using Genie+ today in Hollywood Studios, you probably want to focus on reserving other Lightning Lanes. The attraction may not open at all today. We will let you know if it does.

Nearby, Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy is still open…

…as is Rock Around the Shop if you’re in serious need of Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster merchandise (who isn’t?).

And on the bright side, this is a great time to get a photo in front of the Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster guitar! With fewer people in the area, you might actually be able to get a rare Disney World picture without any photobombs in the background.

Photo op!

We’ll be monitoring this situation in Hollywood Studios so stay tuned for more updates, and keep reading DFB for more Disney World news!
