We finally have a detailed look at the “worlds” that will make up Universal’s Epic Universe! Here is everything we know so far about what looks to be the most immersive and innovative park ever built.
Universal Epic Universe will be made up of 5 different worlds… Upon entering the park, you’ll be transported into Celestial Park - a lush, green world where thrills, entertainment, dining and shopping lead all who enter on an exhilarating journey of discovery. Throughout Celestial Park, you’ll discover 4 portals awaiting to transport you into the other fully themed and immersive worlds - Super Nintendo World™, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ — Ministry of Magic™, How to Train Your Dragon — Isle of Berk, and Dark Universe.
While we don’t have full details for each world just yet, here is a sneak peek into the park's layout, Celestial Park, the portals for each world, some new rides, restaurants, shops, and 3 new hotels.

The new park is currently under construction across 750 acres of land just a few miles Southeast of Universal Orlando Resort between Sand Lake Rd., Universal Blvd., and Destination Pkwy. The park will feature its own parking and of course there will be transportation between Epic Universe and Universal's other parks and attractions.
