Walt Disney World’s Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster

Fans will have to wait to ride Walt Disney World’s Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster for a while. The ride was noted to be frequently closed due to technical difficulties recently, however, in the latest statement shared on Walt Disney World’s official website, the ride will remain closed for time being.

This indoor coaster races visitors along the Los Angeles-style freeway track and through a series of unexpected Tinseltown twists and turns. It includes three thrilling inversions namely two rollover loops and one corkscrew.

The attraction features songs by Aerosmith. Unfortunately, the fans were not able to enjoy it due to faults of synchronization, therefore, the rhythmic ride will remain temporarily closed from February 20, 2023. It will undergo refurbishments and updates so that future visitors can continue to enjoy the musical ride without any hiccups.

More Rides to Remain Closed

Apart from the Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster which has been an attraction since July 1999, more rides are going to see updates in 2023.

The Tower of Terror, which is close to Rick ‘n’ Roller Coaster went through refurbishments. The ride features a series of accelerated drops of a maximum of 63 km/h in 4 minutes. Other rides such as Kali River Rapids, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Enchanted Tales with Belle, Enchantment Fireworks, and Happily Ever After Fireworks will go through refurbishments in 2023.

I’m not ready for rock n roller coaster to leave lol, I love Aerosmith. It’s days are numbered tho and ironically, the only retheme that would make sense for me would have been guardians.
