Sorry if this has already been announced on here, but I didn't see it and I know there's some excitement. This just came to my inbox today!

A New Magical Adventure is Coming June 13, 2019.

Join Hagrid™ as you fly far beyond the grounds of Hogwarts™ castle, on an all-new thrilling roller coaster to discover the rarest magical creatures.

Universal's most highly themed coaster, Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure™, opens this summer.

Any thoughts on if/when there might be a soft opening for this? Of course we check out and our AP's expire 6/8.

It hasn't been announced if it`ll have EP yet.

More than likely not. In recent years I believe it`s only Minions that had EP immediately...….this one will be popular!!!!

Would be nice though.......

Hopefully it'll be open during that golden early hour.

How long was Gringotts open before it got EP?

Very curious about the height requirement on this. My 7-year-old Potter fan is very petite, but loves coasters. We delayed going back to universal for a year in the hopes she can ride FJ.

I live about 2 and a half hours away and have an AP. My days off from work just happen to be June 10th and 11th. Might as well make a trip and keep my fingers crossed for a soft opening! If not, I'll just make a quick trip my day off the next week!

Here's a video of them testing the ride from this past night.

Chances are good for soft openings in May if this goes smoothly, although there is still a lot more to the ride than just the coaster (Animatronics, show scenes, queue) that still needs to be done.

I think I might channel my mind and not do this ride

It looks like it has a vertical climb for the ride

I’m a wimp on rides like rrr
Can’t deal with any steep climb on my back

Hope to get better pictures when ride closer to completion
Maybe it won’t have a steep start

I hate being the wimp with a
