Universal’s Epic Universe is getting ready to celebrate its first anniversary, and we’re anticipating the park will be busier this summer now that it’s been open.

Epic Universe
If you plan on coming to Epic this summer, you’re going to want to be aware of closures that are hitting the park. Sorry, How to Train Your Dragon fans, but you’re going to have to put a pause on training like a Viking for a little bit in May.
We love all the immersive lands at Epic Universe, but one that has really hit our childlike hearts is the land themed to How to Train Your Dragon, Isle of Berk. The entire land makes you feel like you’re walking in the iconic movie.

Isle of Berk
The land features a few different attractions, including Hiccups Wing Gliders, Fyre Drill, and Dragon Racer’s Rally. The land also features an area called the Viking Training Camp. It’s a playground where little kids can explore and train to become Vikings.

Dragon Racer’s Rally
Unfortunately, not everything in the land will be open next month, as the Viking Training Camp will be closing on May 4th and will be closed through May 22nd.

Viking Training Camp
It’s not the go-to attraction out of everything the land has to offer, but it’s definitely a fun area. It’s one of the best places for kiddos to let out some extra energy and see some cool dragon-themed things. We can also understand that when coming to Epic Universe, you’ll want to see everything it has to offer.

That’s not the only attraction that will be closing next month; only this one will sting guests a little more. Over in Donkey Kong Country, Mine-Cart Madness will be closing on May 3rd. The closure won’t last long, but this is one of the park’s most popular attractions, and this one will definitely throw a wrench in plans.
