Epic Universe Opening Timeline Revealed | Epic Universe Update

Disney: We recreated your college cafeteria at Epcot Universal: We built Epic Universe

"...BEFORE next summer". Yes please!

Disney: “Sorry we didn’t do much for Epcot, we really took a hit from Covid and don’t have money” Universal: “You know that park we started building before covid? Yeah, it’s opening early”

My guess has always been basically identical to IOA’s opening timeline back in 1999. Soft opening/TM and passholder previews starting late March (around the 29th), official opening at the end of May (around the 30th.)

Thank you for giving the clear "path" to how you got to the interview and specifically giving credit. I wish it was more common in the theme park you tube space. As for opening timing: I wonder about a earlier opening month that does one land at a time each week to really hone in on improvements. Then a phased land opening afterward. Or two at a time. Either way, they have lots of operations help from the unopened lands to learn, and to pitch in when needed

So excited!!!

@1:26- A-HA! I had heard that some of Disney's Imagineers had left for Universal, so here's the proof it happened haha. That being said, I really hope they still take their time in making sure everything runs smoothly and safely too. I've been waiting for this park to open since I first heard about it back in 2022. I am still trying to figure out when I want to go, I just know I went to go in early December because of the Weather and Crowd situation. I am looking more at 2026 then 2025, gives me more time to save money.

Everybody! Order Balance of Nature Fruit and Vegetables Capsules right now! I want everybody to be at their very best for Epic Universe!

Also leaked: Comcast's three park ticket plan. An idea where guests have to buy a three park ticket in order to visit Epic. A family of four might have to spend $1000 (plus parking) just to walk into the new park. You know what Comcast fears? The rise of conventional wisdom that says "A visit to Epic Universe is more expensive than a visit to Walt Disney World".

Can we honor that hilarious thumbnail for a second??😂😂

You mentioned AP previews a lot, but I feel TM previews almost always come first.

April 2025.

Probably early 2025… maybe winter or most likely spring.

my god imagine this opening in time for spring break season

Disney: Let's make 90 percent of our fans unhappy. If our higher prices don't do it, our cutbacks of guest experiences will and take your pick of whatever else they've done to lower guest satisfaction and reduce visitors to the parks. While we're at it, let's kill some popular franchises and make some horrid movies. Universal: Let's hire the best and let them do their thing. It'll be Epic!

I might be mistaken, but I believe this is the second time he has said this.

I think april

may 2025 is my guess.

February

March 1, 2025
