It’s a LOT of pressure, but we’re here to help make your final decision a LOT less stressful.

We recently stopped by The Blue Dragon Pan-Asian Restaurant at Celestial Park in Epic Universe to see what was cookin’, and now we’re bringing you our FULL review. Is it worth a stop on your next trip to Epic Universe? Find out here!
It’s hard to believe it’s been a whole year since Epic Universe first opened, and we’ve spent a lot of time in Universal Orlando’s new theme park exploring all the different lands. One of our favorites might just be Dark Universe, though, so you can imagine our excitement when we spotted some permits suggesting something NEW was coming soon.
Dark Universe
A new permit suggests that a brand new attraction is coming to Dark Universe (well, we figured it out after putting a few clues together). Well, now, we’ve got some new photos showing this expansion.
We love going to Epic Universe for an epic park day. Where else can you ride dragons, battle wizards, face monsters, and race in Mario Kart all in one day?
Epic Universe!
Well, we have some massive Epic Universe news – the park is about to get even bigger. Universal just filed a brand-new permit for a 71,500-square-foot structure at Epic Universe!
A major change is seemingly coming to Universal’s Epic Universe…and not everyone is happy about it.
Epic Universe
While Universal Orlando’s latest theme park has been acclaimed by both fans and critics since it opened last year, like anything else, it hasn’t been perfect. From issues as serious as a tragic on-ride death to more mundane theme park problems like weather and maintenance-related closures and a lack of shaded areas, Epic Universe has run into its fair share of issues. Now, a new technology policy is an issue.
When we’re at Epic Universe, the Ministry of Magic portal is a must-do. Where else can you battle at the Ministry, meet magical animals, and stay cool with a frozen Butterbeer all in the same place?
Wizarding Paris
But Universal just announced a major Epic Universe closure that will make our next Wizarding World visit a lot less magical, starting tomorrow!
NEW fireworks alert!
Epic Universe
We all know no theme park day is complete without watching the fireworks. Universal Orlando just announced a brand-new show starting next month, and y’all, this might be the ultimate fireworks show.
If you thought Disney World was a workout for your feet, wait until you spend a day at Epic Universe.
We LOVE these!
Universal’s newest park opened with no shortage of massive, immersive worlds to explore, and the walking distances alone are something to prepare for. Comfortable, reliable footwear is not optional here. Whether you’re a seasoned theme park veteran or making the pilgrimage for the first time, the right shoes will make or break your visit. Here are the ones Disney adults are actually packing for Epic Universe right now, and they’re all available on Amazon.
