Just Announced: An Epic New Theme Park Heading to Universal Orlando

This morning (Aug 1), Universal Orlando Resort announced a brand new theme park, which will make this their fourth park in Orlando. According to Universal Orlando Resort, Universal’s Epic Universe will redefine theme park entertainment, offering guests a whole new level of experiences. The new park will be built on a 750-acre site located south of Sand Lake Road and east of Universal Boulevard.  

Universal’s Epic Universe will not only be a theme park, but it will offer an entertainment center, hotels, shopping, restaurants, and more! Transportation will be available and will take about 12 minutes from the current parks. 

In the park, guests will experience an entirely new standard of theme park entertainment and take them into beloved stories. Guests will be taken on an adventure beyond their wildest dreams and to destinations just as breathtaking as the journey. 

This expansion will ultimately create a more spacious resort for family and friends to let loose and create lasting memories. Not only will the opening of this new park create more room, it will also create new jobs and will employ 14,000 Team Members and the base rate will be $15 per hour.

The opening date of this theme park has not been announced and Universal Orlando Resort has playfully teased fans on twitter.
