"Fast & Furious" rollercoaster coming to Universal Studios Florida in 2027

Universal Orlando Resort is revving up for its next big thrill with Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift - a high-octane outdoor roller coaster that will join the Universal Studios Florida family in 2027.

Replacing the former Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit roller coaster, Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift will put guests in the driver seat of the high-speed thrills of Universal Pictures’ Fast & Furious universe like never before, reads a press release. 

Riders will experience the exhilarating sensation of 360-degree drifting as they speed through jaw-dropping maneuvers – including a 170-foot vertical “spike” that will send riders nearly 17 stories in the air over the outskirts of Universal CityWalk.

Universal Studios Hollywood will also debut its own, one-of-a-kind Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift outdoor roller coaster later this year.  As Universal Studios Florida makes way for the new experience, Fast & Furious – Supercharged will permanently close in 2027, the company said. 

More information about Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift will be shared in the months ahead.
