Confused about Seasonal Pass and HHN Days

[addj20]

We're travelling to Orlando in October, planning to stay 4 nights at Cabana Bay and 7 nights at Sheraton Vistana Resort.

We were going to get a 5 day, 3 park pass to Universal, but noticed it's not much more to get a Seasonal Pass, which will also give us Early Entry and a discount on the room at Cabana Bay.

The Blockout Date page for Seasonal Passes says "Seasonal Passholders are blocked out of Universal Studios Florida™ on all concert dates and will only receive access to Universal's Islands of Adventure"

Does anyone know if HHN is counted as a "concert date"? Does that mean we won't be able to go in to Universal Studios during the day if an HHN event is on that night? I know HHN will be on a few nights during our stay, so that would be reason enough to not get a Seasonal Pass.
Also, does anyone know if there are any other "concerts" on in early October which might restrict our access? I couldn't find anything on the Universal website.

I emailed Universal for clarification, but haven't had a reply as yet...was hoping one of the gurus on here might know??

No, HHN is not a concert date. You will have problems there. You get EE at CB.

Should read NO problems there. Sorry

No concerts during that time so no issues for you.

Awesome...thanks all!

As far as I know the Seasonal Pass doesn't get you early entry. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought it was just the higher tiered passes that included early entry?

But staying at Cabana Bay does get you early entry, so you're covered either way.

Sorry, yes, you're correct. The only bonus for the Seasonal Pass is the room discount, and it just gives us a bit more flexibility being able to return to the parks for a couple of nights later in the week. The Early Entry comes with the CB rooms.

I did say I was confused!
