The countdown is officially on! Universal Orlando Resort has announced that its long-awaited fourth theme park, Universal Epic Universe, will open its gates on May 22, 2025. This highly anticipated addition will transport guests into five incredible worlds filled with immersive adventures that push the boundaries of imagination and innovation.
As the most ambitious project Universal Destinations and Experiences has ever embarked on, Epic Universe promises over 50 unique experiences, including groundbreaking attractions, stunning entertainment, and themed dining and shopping. The park will offer five themed worlds: Celestial Park, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic, SUPER NINTENDO WORLD, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, and Dark Universe. Anchoring it all will be the Universal Helios Grand Hotel, a stunning 500-room property that not only offers breathtaking views but also features a private entrance for guests (with valid theme park admission).
The opening of Epic Universe will elevate Universal Orlando into a must-visit, weeklong destination, with four incredible theme parks and 11 spectacular hotels. This will forever redefine the landscape of Orlando’s tourism scene, taking immersive experiences to the next level.
Karen Irwin, President and COO of Universal Orlando Resort, said, “This is such a pivotal moment for our destination, and we’re thrilled to welcome guests to Epic Universe next year. Our Universe will never be the same.”
