The official opening of Epic Universe is set to be Thursday, May 22, 2025. This will be Universal Orlando Resorts fourth theme park, following Universal Studios Florida, Universal Islands of Adventure, and Universal Volcano Bay.

At its opening, over 50 themed experiences will be featured in the park, ranging from attractions to themed dining and shopping. 5 “worlds” will be featured throughout the park: Celestial Park, SUPER NINTENDO WORLD, Dark Universe, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Ministry of Magic, and How to Train Your Dragon - Isle of Berk.

Ticketing for Epic Universe will work slightly differently than normal, as guests cannot purchase individual tickets for the theme park. Guests can choose between a 3, 4, or 5-day ticket to the resort, however only one of those days may include admission to Epic Universe. These products will go on sale Tuesday, October 22, as well as reservations for Universal’s newest hotel on-site of the park, Helios Grand Hotel.

Annual Passholders may have the opportunity to purchase single-day tickets to Universal Epic Universe starting Thursday, October 24.

Additional details - including additional ticket products - will be released in the coming months.
