It’s been a MAJORLY busy week at Universal Orlando as guests have clung onto their last bits of Spring Break and celebrated Easter.

As we’ve given you a peek into what the parks are like at capacity, we’ve even told you exactly how to handle the crowds. And, you’ll need to keep those tips handy if you plan on heading to Universal Orlando today!
This morning, Universal Studios Florida and Universal’s Islands of Adventure hit capacity for the fifth day in a row! We’ve already seen the parks become busy at the beginning of the weekend, as well as on Easter. And, they are already looking on the more crowded side as another week of April kicks off.
Today, April 5th at 11:03 am, Universal Studios Florida & Islands of Adventure have reached capacity. We anticipate reopening later this afternoon. For updates, please call our capacity hotline: 407-817-8317 pic.twitter.com/kzlxQ5Es9f
