I enjoyed watching them to understand more about Celestial Park and all the Portals to enter.
Now I know there will be over 30 new live shows and performances including all new music created for EPIC
And 8 different character designs for the Power Up Bands

More interesting than bloggers for sure!
Thanks Universal!

Thanks for sharing, I like stuff like this better than bloggers, too!

Not sure what you mean. They had always planned to sell one day tickets.

I'm sure they did but did they plan to do so this quickly? Did they think they would only sell out the first week and a half with the initial ticket sales approach? Maybe they did, I don't know.

They are actively selling that 14 day all parks ticket now, I can buy it now if I wanted to. But the value is fantastic. I looked at 14 night Grand Helios plus 14 day all park ticket and it was 6086.00 for 2 people August 4th-18th 2025

Are the 14 day all parks not for 2026. for 2025 its 1 day epic

As for the same dates it shows as "

I think you might be seriously underestimating the park capacity here. There's capacity that Universal wants to have most especially in the first few days that normally are filled with a lot of media, vloggers and bloggers and then there's greater capacity that would be seen on a more normal day. People equating availability to tickets as a bad thing are like people who talk about Disney's attendance since the pandemic. The companies are in control of just how many people are in their parks (this was especially the case when Disney made everyone do park reservations, they still make non-dated based tickets and certain other ticket media do park reservations as well as APs on certain days and time of day).

With that in play you shouldn't make an assumption that attendance is lower than the company wants. It would be one thing if Universal just started with having the general public be able to purchase whatever tickets they wanted at once, including those with APs and those using a hotel package, if they did it that way you'd be more able to actually see effectively which days had high demand and were unavailable to purchase and which days had lower demand. But any time a company steps in and makes controls on entry you have to use that in context to understand the company is the one deciding just how many guests they want in the parks.

Universal said months ago that they would release single day tickets before parking opening, what we the public didn't know was exactly when they would release that.

The exact timing (meaning mid-March) like I said in my other comment I think it means they have more confidence in the park operations since previews have been started, as in things are running smoothly enough. To me at least if they were running into issues on a great enough scale they wouldn't want to release at this exact moment the single day to the public tickets and instead focus on working out more of those kinks

Regardless of if my opinion is more accurate or not I think some people are taking a negative viewpoint irrespective of anything going on simply because they want to.

Woohoo, secured my one day Epic ticket for October. I was able to get into the queue before it paused this morning and was able to check out while it was paused (though not without lots of patience and re-entering things). Got a confirmation # and credit card charge but no email yet. It was $185.

Virgin have a tendency of getting things wrong. They have sold resorts that have been sold out.

Last year the had free dinning plan when it dint exist

 

[wendlle]

sad, sad, sad.
I leave Orlando on May 29 and I've been patiently waiting for the single day tickets. So no Epic visit for me

My only hope is that they perhaps allow on site guests to visit - we are onsite May 3-9 but I'm doubtful.

 

[goofies]

Trying to book one day EPIC tickets in July, but only June seems to be available. I have tried a dozen of times, but only June is available, no other months. What is going on?

 

[Kwami]

Now I'm worried that the park is going to be too crowded with all the 1-day tickets and no express passes.

I had the same issue - couldn’t get beyond June. Hopped over to another website and booked through them instead.

I can't buy one because May isn't offered but I logged on to look and i can only see June as well.

I would definitely wait until at least 2026. The crowds at Epic Universe will be like Cars Land x10.

The park is going to be packed for at least a year or two.

With EP it'll slow down the lines overall so I think (and hope) that without having EP in the very beginning you're going to see people in lines for the rides they want to ride, it's going to force people to do that which should hopefully ease up things.

I do think people have to be realistic about crowds though. If you thought you were going to be in a low crowded Epic park I would say you'd need to wait more than 5 years for that if not more just based on past ways Harry Potter drew crowds. I always assumed the parks would be insanely busy for at least several years. But it's very much a wait and see, it's possible Universal is much more limiting the number of people than we can feasibly know at this point to help with the idea of too many people but it's also possible they are running right on the edge of it. But my overall point is EP has really nothing to do with "too crowded" or not in the first several years of opening operation.

 

[GhostHost24]

Agreed. If anything I'm really hoping they don't sell ep for opening weekend. I'll be so happy. It's proven wait times shoot up once express is implemented

Velocicoaster used to be routinely 30 or less before they added express.
