Universal Epic Universe is an upcoming theme park under construction in Orlando, Florida. Scheduled to open on May 22, 2025, Epic Universe will be the third theme park and fourth park overall to open at Universal Orlando.[2] The park is part of a larger 750-acre (300 ha) development and will feature five themed areas named Celestial Park, Dark Universe, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, Super Nintendo World, and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic.[2]
History
On August 1, 2019, NBCUniversal announced that it was building a new theme park at Universal Orlando named Universal's Epic Universe.[3] Chairman and CEO of Universal Parks & Resorts at the time, Tom Williams, released a statement labeling Epic Universe the "most immersive and innovative theme park" the company has ever created.[4]Comcast and NBCUniversal officials expected the new park to create 14,000 additional jobs, and Governor Ron DeSantis shared positive feedback in a public statement.[4]
Concept art released by Universal during the official announcement in August 2019 left details purposely vague.[4] Many IPs were rumored to appear in the park, including lands dedicated to How to Train Your Dragon, Fantastic Beasts, Universal Classic Monsters, and the Nintendo franchises Super Mario and Donkey Kong. In January 2020, the presence of Super Nintendo World in the park was confirmed by multiple Comcast executives.[5][6] Epic Universe's version of Super Nintendo World was officially announced in February 2023, with CEO Mark Woodbury calling it the "worst-kept secret in history".[7]
The initial opening was scheduled for 2023,[8] but it was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic when construction was halted.[9] Construction resumed in March 2021,[10] and Jeff Shell, CEO of NBCUniversal, announced the following year that the park would open by Summer 2025.[11] This was confirmed by the resort's official Twitter account soon after.[12] On May 5, 2022, Universal offered 13 acres (5.3 ha) of land near the site where Epic Universe is being built for a Brightline rail route commuter station.[13]
On March 8, 2023, Universal Parks & Resorts CEO Mark Woodbury announced the rebranding of the division to Universal Destinations & Experiences. The name for the upcoming park was slightly adjusted from Universal's Epic Universe to Universal Epic Universe.[14][15] A modified logo was unveiled, which removed the apostrophe and letter "s" from the design.[16] An official unveiling of Celestial Park and an overall layout of Epic Universe was released in a press release on January 30, 2024.[17]
The park saw some minor damage from Hurricane Milton in October 2024, particularly the Dark Universe section.[18]
On October 17, 2024, Universal announced that Epic Universe will be opening on May 22, 2025, four days before Memorial Day and sixteen days before Universal Orlando's 35th anniversary. Tickets to the park, as well as reservations for the in-park Helios Grand Hotel, became available on October 22, 2024.[19] Single-day tickets went on sale for passholders on October 24.
The main hub of the park is Celestial Park, a garden featuring design motifs based on astrology and astronomic equipment connecting the other four areas together, as well as incorporating the Helios Grand Hotel. The two rides in the area are Constellation Carousel, a celestial-themed carousel flat ride similar to the SeaGlass Carousel in New York, and Stardust Racers, a dueling roller coaster manufactured by Mack Rides.
Dark Universe
Home to the Universal Classic Monsters and intended as a modern day follow-up to the classic era of films, Dark Universe is set in the dreary Darkmoor Village, where Victoria Frankenstein, the great-great granddaughter of Henry Frankenstein, has continued to follow in her family's footsteps of monster making. Her current experiment, intended to bring all of the legendary monsters under her control, backfires when Dracula starts a revolt.[28] Elsewhere in the village is a camp of Mystics that study the curse of the werewolf, an old windmill that has become a headquarters for a local group of monster hunters, and a steakhouse run by Dracula's thralls.
One of the rides will be Curse of the Werewolf, a launched spinning coaster manufactured by Mack Rides. In late 2021, patents for a new motion-based dark ride, which features elements similar to the technology used on Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey, led to speculation that a new Dark Universe ride themed to Creature from the Black Lagoon would be part of the new expansion as well.[29] This was later revealed to be Monsters Unchained: The Frankenstein Experiment, a dark ride using KUKA arm technology.[30]
How to Train Your Dragon: Isle of Berk
As its name suggests, How to Train Your Dragon: Isle of Berk is themed to the How to Train Your Dragon franchise, and is set between the second and third movies. The three rides are Hiccup's Wing Gliders, a launched roller coaster manufactured by Intamin, Dragon Racer's Rally, a pair of Gerstlauer Sky Fly rides, and Fyre Drill, an interactive boat ride manufactured by Mack Rides.
Super Nintendo World
Super Nintendo World will be themed to various Nintendo-owned franchises, with a primary focus on the Mario franchise. Its entrance from Celestial Park will be themed as a Warp Pipe. Like the version of the land constructed in Universal Studios Japan, it will feature Mario Kart: Bowser's Challenge, an augmented reality racing simulator based on the Mario Kart series, as well as Yoshi's Adventure, an omnimover attraction themed to the character Yoshi from the Mario franchise.[31] The land's layout will be less compact than its Japanese equivalent, however, with the courtyard area being more spread out. The land will also feature an additional section themed to the Donkey Kong franchise, which will include Mine Cart Madness, a new type of roller coaster patented as the "Boom Coaster". The coaster will run over a false track while being attached to a hidden track underneath, allowing designers to implement gaps in the false track to create the illusion that the trains are jumping over the gaps.[32][33] The land is divided into two sections: Super Mario Land and Donkey Kong Country.[34]
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter — Ministry of Magic
Early speculation surfaced that a stage show attraction based on Circus Arcanus, the name of a circus depicted in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, as well as a dark ride were both under construction for Ministry of Magic.[38] A marketing teaser on Twitter in late July 2024 indicated that further details about the themed land would be released on July 31, 2024.[38][39] Additional promotional details were released as anticipated, confirming the earlier speculation.[35] The stage show attraction was revealed as Le Cirque Arcanus, which will be a full-scale theatre experience located in Place Cachée and will feature live performers, puppetry, and special effects.[37][40] There will also be a variety of shops, dining, and other experiences to match the wizarding theme.[41]
English actor Eddie Redmayne reprised his role as Newt Scamander from Fantastic Beasts in new scenes that have already been filmed.[42] The footage appears throughout the Ministry of Magic themed land according to Entertainment Weekly.[42]
Possible expansions
Industry insiders have suggested that phase two of the park's expansion will begin soon after Epic Universe debuts in 2025, with potential attractions for Super Nintendo World revolving around the Luigi's Mansion franchise.[43]
Location and infrastructure
The Universal Epic Universe theme park campus is located several miles southeast of the existing Universal Orlando Resort. The larger 750-acre (300 ha) site, situated south of Sand Lake Road and east of Universal Boulevard,[4] began construction in 2021 that will add new infrastructure including a $315-million, 1.7-mile (2.7 km) extension of Kirkman Road to connect with Universal Boulevard.[44][45] An elevated circular interchange is being added at Sand Lake Road to facilitate traffic into Epic Universe,[45] and dedicated bus lanes along with "bicycle/pedestrian facilities" will be among the changes.[44] The median for buses will be reserved for Universal's fleet of electric buses to transport park guests.[46] Construction is expected to be completed by late 2024.[44][45]
While the other Universal Orlando parks have parking garages, Epic Universe plans to feature an open-air parking lot which will be located on the southeast end of the site.[47] Permits suggest that a ground-level moving walkway will be built through the parking lot.[47]
