AREA ATTRACTIONS - UNIVERSAL

Imagine casting spells with a wand like Harry Potter™, becoming a mischievous Minion, or being in the middle of an intergalactic showdown with the Autobots and Decepticons. Maybe you’d like to get to know Shrek, race with the crew from Fast & Furious, or fight aliens with the MEN IN BLACK™.

Immerse yourself in the next generation of blockbuster entertainment at Universal Studios Florida, where cutting-edge rides, shows and attractions bring your favorite movies, television and more to life at Universal Orlando Resort.

The fastest experience at Universal Studios to put you in the middle of the action is Fast & Furious — Supercharged, a high-octane chase based on the blockbuster films — the first of many starring roles waiting for you here. Zap aliens at MEN IN BLACK™ Alien Attack™, save Earth from the Decepticons at TRANSFORMERS™: The Ride-3D, survive the Revenge of the Mummy, and help a lovable alien phone home at the park’s longest-running attraction, E.T. Adventure.

You can also rock out at Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit, an adrenaline- and music-fueled roller coaster that reaches speeds of 65 mph. Or, take a wild tour of the Big Apple with late night’s reigning king at Race Through New York Starring Jimmy Fallon.

Of course, anyone in possession of Floo powder might want to teleport directly to Diagon Alley™, half of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ at Universal Orlando Resort. This faithful reproduction of the famous wizarding retail district also features themed shopping and dining, as well as the thrilling ride, Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts™. And at King's Cross Station, you can take the Hogwarts™ Express — which can take you directly to Hogsmeade™ at Universal’s Islands of Adventure. (Please note: Hogwarts™ Express requires a multi-park ticket. Additional restrictions apply.)

There’s a lot of animated fun to be had at Universal Studios, too, starting with Despicable Me Minion Mayhem, Shrek 4-D and Woody Woodpecker’s Nuthouse Coaster, among other options.

Adventurers, explorers, book-lovers and thrill-seekers will be awed by the unbelievable experiences that await at Universal’s Islands of Adventure — a world where heroes, myths and legends become real at Universal Orlando Resort!

Explore both lands of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ as you board the Hogwarts™ Express from King’s Cross Station in Universal Studios Florida and arrive at Hogsmeade™ Station in Universal’s Islands of Adventure. (A multi-park ticket is required for travel on Hogwarts™ Express. Additional restrictions apply.)

Half The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ at Universal Orlando Resort is home to Hogwarts™ castle and Hogsmeade™ village. On select nights, watch in awe as a dazzling spectacle of music and lights are cast against the majestic backdrop of the castle. Here, you can enjoy themed shopping, dining and entertainment, as well as feats of wizardry on Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey™, Flight of the Hippogriff™ and the all-new Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure™.

If comic books are more your thing, meet some of your favorite costumed adventurers at Marvel Super Hero Island®.

Next, the young and the young-at-heart can step into beloved childhood storybooks at Seuss Landing™.

You also stand a good chance of getting wet at Poseidon’s Fury, an innovative walk-through exploration of an ancient Greek temple. And you’ll definitely want to bring a towel for Jurassic Park River Adventure, where a white-knuckle river journey through the famous dinosaur land culminates in a pitch-black, 85-foot drop.

Not enough prehistoric action for you? Run with the undisputed king of the apes at Skull Island: Reign of Kong. And even little ones can have some primeval fun at Pteranodon Flyers.
