Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift Release Date Set as Opening Nears
The 4,100-foot coaster features four launches, rotating cars and a top speed of 72 mph, Universal officials said.
- Universal Studios Hollywood will officially open Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift on September 16, 2026, featuring rotating cars inspired by the $7 billion film franchise.
- Developing this engineering feat on a steep hillside took 10 years, with the park installing sound-reduction barriers following noise complaints from neighbors; technical rehearsals began late July.
- Riders rocket along 4,100 feet of aerial track at speeds up to 72 mph, experiencing forces of up to 3.6 Gs while the coaster cars rotate 360 degrees.
- Guests must be at least 51 inches tall to ride; Universal Studios Hollywood encourages testing vehicle fit beforehand and will not include the attraction in express pass offerings at launch.
- The attraction arrives as the Fast & Furious franchise celebrates its 25th anniversary, replacing the former Supercharged experience while Universal Orlando Resort plans to introduce its own coaster version in 2027.
