Epic Universe‘s official opening date is just around the corner on May 22nd, but we’re getting the opportunity to step in the parks WAY more frequently thanks to Annual Passholder Previews!

These previews started on April 17th and run through May 8th, and allow Universal Orlando Annual Passholders a chance to experience the park before regular guests. We took advantage of the first day of previews and Quincy rode everything in the park so she can tell YOU all about it!
There are eleven rides located in Epic Universe (twelve if you count riding both sides of Stardust Racers!):
- Constellation Carousel (Celestial Park)
- Stardust Racers (2 different tracks; Celestial Park)
- Curse of the Werewolf (Dark Universe)
- Monsters Unchained: The Frankenstein Experiment (Dark Universe)
- Dragon Racer’s Rally (Isle of Berk)
- Fyre Drill (Isle of Berk)
- Hiccup’s Wing Gliders (Isle of Berk)
- Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry (Wizarding World of Harry Potter: Ministry of Magic)
- Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge (Super Nintendo World)
- Mine Cart Madness (Super Nintendo World)
- Yoshi’s Adventure (Super Nintendo World)

While eleven rides may sound like a breeze, some of these attractions are seeing MASSIVE wait times due to their newness and popularity, so Quincy decided to ride each one to see what you may want to do on your vacation.

We fully know that an Annual Passholder preview day will likely look very different in terms of crowds than a normal day in the park, however, this preview day was ENTIRELY sold out, so if your day looks similar, we hope this video will help you decide what may be worth waiting hours for, and what you may be able to skip.

Be one of the first to check out the video during the AllEars LIVE YouTube Premiere tomorrow at 10 AM! You can even take part in the family-friendly live chat and talk with AllEars team members, as well as fellow viewers!
