Universal Epic Universe is Coming Soon

This immersive park will pay homage to Harry Potter, Super Nintendo, How to Train Your Dragon and areas based on Monster Movie brands.

Universal Epic Universe offers different worlds for everyone. Step through amazing portals transporting you to the excitement of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ – Ministry of Magic™, SUPER NINTENDO WORLD™, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, Dark Universe and Celestial Park. Five immersive worlds. One amazing theme park.

If you and your family frequent theme parks in Orlando, then you know how exciting it is whenever a new ride is added, much less an entire park where a whole new adventure awaits.

But there’s more to Epic Universe than just the attractions, rides, and food. The Universal Helios Grand Hotel, a luxurious new property, will open its doors, providing another reason to choose Universal Orlando as your vacation destination. With this brand-new addition, Universal’s total hotel count will be 11, giving families more options.

When Will Epic Universe Open To The Public?

Universal Orlando’s newest addition, Universal Epic Universe, is set to open on May 22, 2024.

Universal is anticipating such high demand for this new park that, initially, visitors with multi-day passes will be able to access Epic Universe on only one day of their trip, with the remaining days spent in Universal’s other parks: Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure, and Volcano Bay.

Tickets and vacation packages go on sale October 22, 2024.
