It was originally set to reopen on February 8 but the Universal Orlando Resort calendar now states it will be closed through February 13, so it will reopen to guests on February 14.

It’s normal for water rides to close in the winter for maintenance. This is the first winter season for Epic Universe, which is still not operating at full capacity.

Fyre Drill is an interactive boat ride run by the Viking twins Ruffnut and Tuffnut. Watch our ride POV from both teams’ perspectives below:
