Walt Disney World has announced new Muppet-themed perks for Annual Passholders visiting Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The limited-time offerings run from August 11 through September 24, 2026, and coincide with the recent opening of Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring the Muppets.

The specialty beverage is available at Dockside Diner during regular operating hours through September 24, 2026.
The milk shake combines vanilla ice cream with key lime cake crumbs, key lime sauce, and sprinkles. Guests must present a valid Annual Pass and a photo ID at the time of purchase to receive the Annual Passholder-exclusive item.
Promotion Celebrates New Muppet Attraction
The new Muppet perks for Annual Passholders arrive shortly after the opening of Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring the Muppets.
The attraction replaced Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith while keeping the existing ride system and launch sequence. Disney created a new storyline that follows Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem as they race across Los Angeles to reach a concert on time.

The updated attraction features new music, show scenes, and Muppet-themed elements throughout the experience.
The project is part of Disney’s broader plans for the Muppets after the closure of Muppet*Vision 3D and the surrounding Grand Avenue area. Disney announced those changes in 2024 while revealing plans for a new Monsters, Inc.-themed land at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Part of Disney’s Annual Passholder Program
Disney regularly offers exclusive experiences and discounts for Annual Passholders throughout the year. Previous promotions have included collectible magnets, buttons, specialty food and beverage items, merchandise, and limited-time character appearances.
The latest Muppet-themed offerings continue that approach. Guests need a valid Annual Pass to participate, and all experiences remain subject to availability.
