Universal Epic Universe Grand Opening Details
Unfortunately, the “grand opening” will not be that grand for the general public. Instead, the Grand Opening Celebration is a private party for media and invited VIPs that will take place May 20-21 when the theme park is closed to the general public. That said, Universal Orlando has announced that there will be a “brief celebratory moment” for guests on opening day. The theme park operator has also announced arrival timing logistics. Here’s the latest.
We’re thrilled to welcome you to the Grand Opening Day of Universal Epic Universe! Join us at 8 AM EST on Thursday, May 22, for a brief celebratory moment as we open the portals to worlds beyond anything you’ve experienced.
