Disney4me Posted 7 hours ago Report Share Posted 7 hours ago Epic Universe is officially open! Universal’s brand-new theme park opened on May 22nd, 2025, and now a Universal Hotel perk officially starts today, May 23rd! Epic Universe Staying at a Universal hotel offers several perks, including complimentary transportation and Early Park Admission. If you are staying at a Signature Collection hotel, you can also take advantage of Universal Express Unlimited. And the perks just got even better, as Early Park Admission now has more options! Epic Universe opened with a bang — literally, they shot off daytime fireworks to open the park yesterday! However, there was a hotel perk that was missing on grand opening day that is now available. Guests staying at Universal hotels can now take advantage of Early Park Admission at Epic Universe. Universal Stella Nova Early Park Admission was available during previews, but it wasn’t offered on the grand opening day. However, the perk has now returned as of May 23rd, and hotel guests can enjoy an extra hour inside Epic Universe before other guests are allowed in. If you are staying at the Universal Helios Grand Hotel, you can even take advantage of a special entrance into Epic Universe! Universal Helios Grand Hotel During previews, guests could ride Stardust Racers and the Super Nintendo World attractions: Yoshi’s Adventure, Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge, and Mine-Cart Madness. Of course, attractions are still subject to availability, and not all attractions might be operational during the Early Park Admission window. Mine-Cart Madness Early Park Admission is currently available at Epic Universe, Universal Islands of Adventure, and Volcano Bay. With this exclusive hotel perk, you can get into the park one hour before it opens to all guests. However, be sure to check Universal’s park hours, as the parks included could change. As well, only certain attractions will be available during the Early Park Admission window. Celestial Park in Epic Universe At Islands of Adventure, Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey, Flight of the Hippogriff, Jurassic World VelociCoaster, Ollivanders, and Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure will be available.
