From here you step through \u2018portals\u2019 into a new world each time, each with its own atmosphere and spectacular attractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"celestial-park\">Celestial Park<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Welcome to Celestial Park: a world between worlds, where the energy of the universe comes alive. This is the central area of Epic Universe, from which you enter the other themed areas through mysterious portals!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Celestial Park is much more than a walk-through area. It is an oasis of calm and a perfect area to retreat from the other areas. You'll find several restaurants (such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.universalorlando.com\/web\/en\/us\/things-to-do\/dining\/pizza-moon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pizza Moon<\/a>), bars and other opportunities to relax for a while. But you're sure to find attractions, such as a giant dueling roller coaster: Stardust Racers. If you're looking for a more relaxing ride, opt for the Constellation Carousel. Celestial Park is beautiful area with fountains, impressive gardens, soothing elements and let's not forget the beautiful stores as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"546\" data-id=\"9467\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/epic-universe-celestial-park-aerial-1024x546.jpeg\" alt=\"Celestial Park, Universal Epic Universe - Universal Orlando Resort\" class=\"wp-image-9467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/epic-universe-celestial-park-aerial-1024x546.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/epic-universe-celestial-park-aerial-300x160.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/epic-universe-celestial-park-aerial-768x409.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/epic-universe-celestial-park-aerial-1536x819.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/epic-universe-celestial-park-aerial.jpeg 1850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Top view of Celestial Park<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"11406\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Universal-Epic-Universe-Entrance-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Universal Orlando Resort, Epic Universe - Entrance Portal\" class=\"wp-image-11406\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Universal-Epic-Universe-Entrance-1.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Universal-Epic-Universe-Entrance-1-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Universal-Epic-Universe-Entrance-1-768x432.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Entrance Universal Epic Universe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-train-your-dragon-isle-of-berk\">How To Train Your Dragon - Isle of Berk<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter Berk, a rugged and rocky island where vikings and dragons live together in harmony.

During this blood-curdling adventure, an experiment gets completely out of hand and you are suddenly part of the story....<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"11413\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Portal-Dark-Universe-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Portal Dark Universe Universal Epic Universe - Universal Orlando Resort\" class=\"wp-image-11413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Portal-Dark-Universe-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Portal-Dark-Universe-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Portal-Dark-Universe-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Portal-Dark-Universe-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Portal-Dark-Universe.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Portal Dark Universe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"9466\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-2-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"Dark Universe, Universal Epic Universe - Universal Orlando Resort\" class=\"wp-image-9466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-2-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-2-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-2-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-2-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-2.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dark Universe, concept art<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"w\">What attractions can you expect to see at Universal Epic Universe?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Universal Epic Universe is packed with spectacular attractions scattered throughout its 5 unique areas.

This is because Universal Orlando Resort offers different types of tickets that give access to the different parks. This way you have more freedom and the price per day ticket is cheaper!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Florivida, you will receive at a <a href=\"https:\/\/florivida.nl\/en\/travel\/?_bestemmingen=2292\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/florivida.nl\/reizen\/?_bestemmingen=2292\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">trip<\/a> to Universal Orlando Resort by default a <a href=\"https:\/\/florivida.nl\/en\/activity\/universal-orlando-14-day-explorer-ticket-epic-universe\/\" data-type=\"activiteit\" data-id=\"7532\">14-day Universal Explorer ticket<\/a>. This gives you access to Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure &amp; 1 day to Epic Universe. Starting in 2026, this ticket gets even better, when you'll even have 14 days of unlimited access to all parks <strong>including Epic Universe<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Single tickets are released bit by bit, but are limited in availability and relatively pricey compared to tickets at Florivida. Want to enjoy all that Universal has to offer carefree? Then a combo ticket through Florivida is the most complete and economical option. These are available in combination with booking a package tour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-7 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-id=\"11449\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1024x682.jpeg\" alt=\"Dr. Frankenstein Dark Universe Universal Epic Universe - Universal Orlando Resort\" class=\"wp-image-11449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe.jpeg 1850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Monsters Unchained - Epic Universe <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"11450\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Luigi-Burger-Toadstool-Cafe-in-SUPER-NINTENDO-WORLD-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"Toadstool Cafe Super Nintendo World - Epic Universe Universal Orlando \" class=\"wp-image-11450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Luigi-Burger-Toadstool-Cafe-in-SUPER-NINTENDO-WORLD-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Luigi-Burger-Toadstool-Cafe-in-SUPER-NINTENDO-WORLD-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Luigi-Burger-Toadstool-Cafe-in-SUPER-NINTENDO-WORLD-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Luigi-Burger-Toadstool-Cafe-in-SUPER-NINTENDO-WORLD-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Luigi-Burger-Toadstool-Cafe-in-SUPER-NINTENDO-WORLD-at-Universal-Epic-Universe.jpeg 1850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Luigi Burger, Toadstool Cafe - Epic Universe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h\">How many days do you need for Universal Epic Universe?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although you could visit Universal Epic Universe in one day, we recommend at least two days for this park. With five themed areas, multiple top attractions and an unprecedented level of detail, there is an awful lot to see and experience. We will tell you more about this in the <a href=\"https:\/\/florivida.nl\/en\/oorlando-45-epic-universe-our-first-visit\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"11381\">podcast<\/a> From Oorlando!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of the attractions are new and popular, so because of this you should expect longer wait times, especially in the first few months after opening. Moreover, Epic Universe is designed as a true experience world. Each area is full of details, interactive elements, shows and unique hospitality points. So to get everything out of your visit, if possible, we recommend a 2-day visit!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-8 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"581\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"11459\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_3122-581x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11459\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_3122-581x1024.jpg 581w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_3122-170x300.jpg 170w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_3122-768x1353.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_3122-872x1536.jpg 872w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_3122-1163x2048.jpg 1163w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_3122-scaled.jpg 1453w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 581px) 100vw, 581px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Super Nintendo World Luigi &amp; Mario - Epic Universe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"582\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"11458\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/HowToTrainYourDragon-EpicUniverse-582x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"Isle of Berk, How to Train Your Dragon Universal Epic Universe - Universal Orlando Resort\" class=\"wp-image-11458\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/HowToTrainYourDragon-EpicUniverse-582x1024.jpeg 582w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/HowToTrainYourDragon-EpicUniverse-170x300.jpeg 170w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/HowToTrainYourDragon-EpicUniverse-768x1352.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/HowToTrainYourDragon-EpicUniverse-872x1536.jpeg 872w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/HowToTrainYourDragon-EpicUniverse-1163x2048.jpeg 1163w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/HowToTrainYourDragon-EpicUniverse-scaled.jpeg 1454w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 582px) 100vw, 582px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">How to Train Your Dragon - Epic Universe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-id=\"11457\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1-1024x682.jpeg\" alt=\"Monsters Unchained Dark Universe Universal Epic Universe - Universal Orlando Resort\" class=\"wp-image-11457\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Dark-Universe-at-Universal-Epic-Universe-1.jpeg 1850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dark Universe Monsters Unchained - Epic Universe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"11456\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Battle-atthe-Ministry-HarryPotter-EpicUniverse-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"Battle At the Ministry, ride vehicle.

Then we have some tips to make your visit a little more efficient and perhaps more fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Staying at a Universal Hotel<br><\/strong>Guests staying overnight at one of the Universal hotels will receive early access to select areas in the parks, this also applies to Epic Universe. For example, you can enter Celestial Park &amp; Super Nintendo World an hour early. This allows you to tick some popular attractions right off your list before it gets really crowded.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Stay at one of the hotels near Epic Universe <br><\/strong>Even though all Universal hotels offer free transportation to the parks, some hotels are more conveniently located when your visit is focused on Epic Universe. When you stay at Universal Terra Luna Resort it is a short 5-minute drive to this park, and Universal Stella Nova Resort has its own walking path to the park entrance. When you stay at Universal Helios Grand Hotel you even walk directly into the park with its own entrance! In fact, this hotel is directly adjacent to the Celestial Park area.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Express Pass<br><\/strong>Another option to get to as many attractions as possible in one day is to buy a front-row pass or Fastpass, also called an Express Pass. This allows you to skip the regular line once at each attraction. Keep in mind that this pass is not valid for the attractions: Dragon Racer's Rally, Donkey Kong: Mine-Cart Madness and Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Virtual queue for Harry Potter<br><\/strong>Surely one of the most important tips is this one! For the popular attraction&nbsp;<em>Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry<\/em>&nbsp;a virtual queuing system was used during previews. This means you must reserve a time slot through the Universal Orlando app to experience the attraction. Reserving a time slot is only possible when you are in the park. New time slots will become available at 12:00, 15:00 &amp; 18:00. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Good to know!<\/span> Even if you were unable to secure a time slot, you can still enter the Ministry of Magic. Walk through the Floo &amp; discover the indoor and impressive area!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Make good use of your time! <br><\/strong>At night, too, the different worlds offer a completely different experience! Dark Universe in particular is highly recommended as the sun slowly sets. Because the park is expected to be open until 9 or 10 p.m., you have plenty of time to enjoy everything there is to experience throughout the day.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-9 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"11467\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CelestialPark-Overview-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"Celestial Park Overview - Universal Epic Universe\" class=\"wp-image-11467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CelestialPark-Overview-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CelestialPark-Overview-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CelestialPark-Overview-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CelestialPark-Overview-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/CelestialPark-Overview.jpeg 1850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Celestial Park, Helios &amp; Carousel - Epic Universe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"v\">Frequently asked questions about Universal Epic Universe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Find the answer to your question here!<\/summary>\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list\">\n<div id=\"faq-question-1747206725300\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h2 class=\"rank-math-question\">When does Epic Universe open? <\/h2>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer\">\n\n<p>Universal Epic Universe will open its doors on May 22, 2025!
