🎭🐷 The Diva Has Left the Fountain: Miss Piggy Statue Removed from Disney’s Hollywood Studios
It’s the end of an era, or at least a splashy chapter, as the beloved Miss Piggy Lady Liberty fountain has officially been removed from Muppets Courtyard at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Aerial photos from @bioreconstruct on X confirm what fans feared was coming: the fabulous fountain centerpiece has taken its final bow… at least for now.

For years, the statue of Miss Piggy channeling her inner Statue of Liberty (complete with torch and a signature smirk) stood proudly as the heart of the Muppets Courtyard. Even after MuppetVision 3D closed its curtains, the fountain kept flowing, visible above construction walls like a final curtain call for the queen of porcine pizzazz. But as of June 27, the waterworks have stopped, and Miss Piggy has vanished.
The removal marks a major milestone in the ongoing transformation of the area into the upcoming Monsters, Inc.-themed land, Monstropolis. While construction has only just started, the demolition of icons like Miss Piggy’s fountain makes it clear: the Muppets are making way for the monsters.
Concept art for the new land shows a redesigned plaza with a new, Monsters-inspired fountain and familiar landmarks like Mama Melrose’s transforming into Harryhausen’s, the sushi joint from Monsters, Inc.. PizzeRizzo also appears to be getting a monstrous makeover, though the new name hasn’t been revealed just yet.

As for the statue itself? Disney hasn’t shared if Miss Piggy is off to a glamorous retirement, headed to another park, or perhaps planning a surprise comeback in a new location (Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster’s Muppets retheme, maybe?). One thing’s for sure—fans are already calling for her safe return.
For now, the buildings of the former Grand Avenue remain largely intact, but with cranes on the horizon and progress on the Monsters, Inc. vertical lift coaster underway, change is in full swing. And while we’re excited to enter the world of Monstropolis, there’s no denying we’ll miss our fountain diva watching over the courtyard.
Wherever Miss Piggy ends up, we just hope it involves glitter, spotlights, and maybe a guest appearance by Kermit.
