Epic Universe Preview Hours & Early Entry

A whimsical theme park area featuring a colorful, cartoon-style mountain with question mark blocks, small trees, and piranha plants, inspired by a popular video game series.

According to the Universal Orlando Resort website, Epic Universe will be open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily — except on Friday, April 25, when it will close at 6 p.m.

Universal Hotel guests, including those staying at the in-park Universal Helios Grand Hotel, can enter Epic Universe one hour early at 10 a.m. However, no rides will be running during that extra hour. WDWNT confirmed this with vacation planning team members at Universal Helios Grand Hotel.

Previews for Annual Passholders and other select guests are from April 16 through May 8. Five dates are already sold out.

Passholders cannot use their Early Park Admission or Universal Express After 4PM benefits at Epic Universe yet.
