The new park features five thematic worlds: Celestial Park, the magical world of Harry Potter, Super Nintendo Land, Dark Universe, and a zone inspired by the "How to Train Your Dragon" books and films. Additionally, visitors can enjoy accommodations at hotels offering 500 rooms as well as a spacious dining area. This makes the new attraction the largest park in the region and Universal Orlando's most significant investment since 1999.

Five thematic worlds

Celestial Park stands as the central hub of the park, filled with flowers and fountains. Super Nintendo World, in contrast, bursts with vibrant colors and sounds, presenting two-level attractions that immerse visitors completely in the world of gaming.

Dark Universe brings guests into the realm of classic horror tales, like Frankenstein and Dracula. Meanwhile, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter: Ministry of Magic is the third installment in the popular series, transporting visitors into the magical universe familiar from the Harry Potter films.

In the How to Train Your Dragon - Isle of Berk zone, visitors will encounter dragons and attractions inspired by Viking culture. Characters from the film will also make appearances.

Tourists will be delighted

The park opens to the public at 9:00 AM, with single-day ticket prices starting at $139 for adults.

Epic Universe will be the third full-fledged theme park at Universal Orlando, joining the existing parks: Universal Studios Florida (opened in 1990) and Universal’s Islands of Adventure (opened in 1999). In addition, Universal Orlando features the Volcano Bay water park, which began operations in 2017.
