food IS a theme park
Happy April Fool’s Day! Today is always a day filled with pranks, jokes, and funny, fake “announcements” from companies. Universal didn’t disappoint!
Universal Orlando
Universal Orlando just announced some “news” for Epic Universe that had us dying to experience it!
Stardust Racers is one of Epic Universe’s most popular attractions. The dual-launch roller coaster has riders racing against the opposite track in one of Universal Orlando’s fastest rides.

The roller coaster closed for annual refurbishment on February 19th, but the closure has been extended from late February to mid-March, and now until April 5th!
It’s about to get DARK. Really, really dark. We’re talking cursed monsters. Experiments gone wrong. Fire. Evil laughter. Scary stuff! Can you handle it? Good, because we need a friend. We’re going to Dark Universe, the spooky new land in Epic Universe at Universal Orlando. Prepare for jaw-dropping, heart-pounding, scream-inducing moments all over the place.
Dark Universe Portal
You might be thinking, “How did you get in there? Epic Universe isn’t open yet!” and you’d be correct. Universal Orlando Resort’s Epic Universe Park officially opens on May 22nd, 2025, but we got a special invite to preview the park before it opens to the public. We went through every land and every attraction, and now we’ve made it to Dark Universe. Do you hear that? Someone’s giving us a warning. “It’s alive! It’s alive!” Well, with that, let’s head through the portal…
So MANY new things have been announced about Universal’s Epic Universe land for How To Train Your Dragon — Isle of Berk it’s like trying to drink from a fire hydrant!

Universal Studios is KNOWN to be super cryptic in their announcements.
Universal Orlando
On March 25th, Universal shared a post on X that made us think that new details about EPIC Universe would arrive on March 28th. Since the background of the video matched the background in the EPIC Universe logo and the shooting star is next to 3.28.24, we were wondering if this was a hint that BIG news regarding the park would come out way soon. Now, we know that our hunch was correct!
