We’re not sure there’s anyone more excited about Epic Universe than we are, and although we got to preview it, we can’t wait for opening day on May 22nd.

People have been asking how to get one of those top-secret previews of the park, and if you ask on the internet, you’ll get some pretty funny responses.
One person asked a Universal Annual Passholder Facebook Group, “How do you get into seeing Epic Universe before it opens?” The answers were…well…EPIC!

Some recommended sneaking in “under the cloak of darkness” or using “your floo powder,” which might take you directly to the Ministry of Magic.

Others thought “flying a dragon” could get you into Isle of Berk…

…and “finding a warp pipe” could transport you to Super Nintendo World.

We didn’t see any suggestion on getting to Dark Universe but we’re sure turning into a werewolf might get you in.

We also loved the “hard hat and construction vest” suggestions or “marrying a Team Member.” The group also suggested “Air drop from a helicopter” and “hopping the fence.” (Remember this is satire, please do not try to do this.)
We don’t recommend too many of these methods (but props to you if your pet dragon gets you in), but if you’re wondering how to get into Epic, here’s what we know.

Right now, Team Member previews are happening at Epic Universe, so the only way to get a sneak peek of the new park is to either be a Team Member or be close family or friends. While there are rumors of Annual Passholder previews happening before the park opens in May, there hasn’t been any official information announced.

Our reporter Myranda was able to preview the park and learned a lot in the one day she had in there. See all about it here!

The best way to enter Epic Universe is to purchase a ticket and wait for it to open! However, dates are filling up fast, especially around opening day, so if you’re ready to start your adventure, we recommend getting a ticket now.

You can also view the park from Stella Nova, one of the three new hotels that are opening near Epic! While it’s not the same as experiencing the new rides, it’s still pretty cool to see what’s happening.

We’re counting down the days until Epic Universe opens, but in the meantime, make sure you’re following AllEars to stay up to date on everything happening.
