Universal Orlando is going, well, universal!
Epic Universe
It seems like everyone around the world is excited for Epic Universe, Universal Orlando’s newest theme park, to open, and the celebrations are getting bigger and bigger.

Every guest who comes to watch the show will have a chance to win a 7-night trip to Universal Orlando with tickets to all four parks, including Universal Studios Florida, Universal Islands of Adventure, Universal Volcano Bay, and, of course, Epic Universe.
