2025 is going to change the face of the Orlando theme park industry. It may sound dramatic, but it’s true — Epic Universe is opening!
Epic Universe, the newest park from Universal Orlando, has some exciting things in store. We’ve already seen a deep dive into Super Nintendo World, Celestial Park, and How to Train Your Dragon — Isle of Berk. If you’re as pumped for this theme park as we are, you’re going to want to head to CityWalk this month!
Opening this June, Universal is debuting the Epic Universe Preview Center in CityWalk! Yes, you can get an in-person sneak peek of the highly-anticipated theme park.
In the former location of the Universal Legacy Store, you can enter the interactive Preview Center for an up-close look at the park. That includes a massive model of the new lands and attractions!
Right here is the new Stardust Racers coaster (which recently changed its name) which will be in the Celestial Park land.
We had a blast walking around the model and spotting new details. The opening may be months away, but this is making us excited!
This is also a chance to get ahead of the game and purchase some Epic Universe merchandise. We spotted wands, shirts, water bottles, and bags from the Harry Potter universe…
…and tons of Super Nintendo merchandise!
Quincy was a huge fan of this Yoshi hat (maybe it should be in a video…?).
We also spotted some Dark Universe shirts, shot glasses, and more.
You’ll also see each of the different portals that the park will have when it opens!
While we’re still waiting for an official Epic Universe opening date, we do have opening dates for the new hotels coming to Epic Universe. Universal Stella Nova Resort will open on January 21st, 2025, while Universal Terra Luna Resort will open on February 25th. The third first-of-its-kind Universal hotel, Universal’s Helios Grand Hotel, will also open in 2025.
