But still no Express Passes

As a former passholder who let it lapse (waiting for Epic to be added to the pass options), I'm happy to see that single-day tickets for Epic Universe are able to be purchased now! May is fully blocked out, but June is still totally available.

I'll be going June 2nd - so excited that this park is finally going to be real!

It's been quite a day with single day tickets going on sale for Epic Universe. Share your thoughts/questions/rants here to keep the feed clean from repeated posts. For those that are not pass holders, Universal has stated that more ticket options will become available closer to opening day.

We are due to travel in Dec 25.

We have 1 day epic ticket included in our multi day park tickets.

1 day won’t be enough especially with as many kids as we have.

Is there an option to purchase an additional 1 day ticket ?

Hi, I was planning to go to epic universe on may, 30th. Pretty close to their opening. It is a personal special day and the only park I want to go to is epic universe (I’ve been to the other ones not long ago). Why do we have to get a 3 day ticket minimum to get 1 day access to epic universe??? I know it’s their marketing strategy and I suspect it is to limit crowd capacity. But, damn I really wanted to go. I was going to plan for one day and not worry about hotels, boarding my dog overnights, etc. But, it seems like I do not have a choice unless I wait a few of months until there is one. Just making this post to rant but also to see if someone else would know about something or if I missed something on the website. If not, that’s alright, I’ll plan the trip again in a couple of months. Thank you! For the people who are going soon, have fun!!!

Has anyone been able to buy tickets at the park/gate even if the online option was showing sold out?

Hey all! I am in Orlando until Sunday the 25th and would love to check out Epic Universe, but (of course) all dates for this week already seem sold out. I'm not really familiar with Universal's ticketing system, but do they offer a resell market anywhere? Or is anyone willing to resell their ticket?

Thanks!

Hi,

We're going to be coming in and staying on the 15th to the 25th of November and want to do Epic Universe from out of town from the West Coast and we're going to be flying in.

I was wondering is there any local spots to get discount tickets JUST for Epic Universe? I understand that prices can vary depending on the day you go. I know coming in October for a cruise they had this booth set up at this gift shop next to the waffle house where you could get $140 credit towards a park ticket for going to a 90-minute presentation which is probably for a timeshare.

But I'm more looking for if there's any places that just offer discount tickets locally because there's a lot of places that say they sell like discount tickets or you can get tickets at like Walmart and things like that or even at like our hotel we're staying at they will offer tickets but I don't know if it's any of a discount.

I saw that undercover tourist has a deal but for the deal you have to go to Universal and Epic universe and we just want to do Epic Universe.

Also I'm aware that people that they have annual passes can get like 15% off tickets for Epic Universe but it sounds like for those it's only for pass holders and a Passover cannot purchase the discount tickets for family and friends that are a passholder.

Because we're going to be pretty tight for our budget and we're trying to save wherever possible as my friend that's coming with me he's only going to have just over $600 budget for parks and for food and we're skipping Universal Orlando and Islands of Adventure so that we can go to Epic Universe since we're doing the Orlando Informer event for Universal Orlando in it Islands of Adventure either that first weekend on Saturday or the next weekend after.

I have seaworld, Busch Gardens, and Disney covered for us for the trip already.

I have a friend that we normally get comp tickets from that works for Universal each year and I know as of August 2025 team members get 2 tickets a month for Epic Universe but unfortunately their 2 tickets for November are already taken for November and we don't know of any other team members that work there.

We don't have a specific day that we're going yet the only day that would be restricted is obviously the day we're coming in on the 15th, the 18, and the 25 when where leaving to go back home. But we're open to other days.

Someone also said the best day to go would be Saturday for less crowded lines which normally for places that I've gone to it's busy on Saturdays but again this is more of a touristy area then locals people are coming in from all over the place and usually on the weekends maybe they're trying to fly home or something and it's not as busy because weekends is mostly locals?

I mean as much as we don't really want to we're seriously considering finding a time to do this 90 minute presentation get $140 off tickets each but would rather have other means otlf trying to save on tickets.

If anyone has info that would be great.

I dont understand how for the 2+1 day at epic ticket people are still allowed to pick opening day? Theres no way they havent oversold by thousands at this point.

Hi everyone, hopefully I can give enough explanation to have my question answered. My husband and I just purchased annual passes, but we will not be using them for the first time until November 15th. We are doing a trip with the rest of my family, so I have two questions:

1. Would it be better for me to purchase the tickets for my family through DOD discount in advance ($403.75 for park to park and 1 day Epic), or wait til we get into the park and buy my family's tickets with my annual pass discount?

2. Because I cannot buy the discounted Epic Universe tickets till my pass is activated, would we be okay to buy them on the day of, or is it safer to forgo the discount and purchase them in advance through the regular ticketing website?

3. (Edited to add) I can only purchase discounted Epic tickets for myself and my husband as passholders, not the rest of my family, correct?

Maybe I'm completely misled/misunderstanding this, but it seems the only way to go to EPIC right now is to buy a multi-pass ticket for the other parks as well?

Personally, I liked Universal Studios, but not enough to go back so soon. As for Island of adventure, my group wouldn't do the big rides like Hulk, Velocicoaster and Doom Fall, but they agreed to do every single ride at Epic (except Stardust Racers, which you bet I'll ride solo anyways).

In any case, it would help us budget for a trip if we didn't need to buy a multi-pass ticket, so I'm just wondering when will it be possible to visit without having to buy more expensive tickets for the parks we don't currently want to visit again?

I am sorry if this sounds asinine. I don't know how to attach a picture. We have never gone to Universal and I'm trying to book a package for June with the Hard Rock resort. We are staying four nights. By default, the ticket options say "3-Park 3-Day Park-to-Park PLUS 1-Day Universal Epic Universe Ticket". I take this to mean four total park days. 3 park days, plus the Epic Universe day.

Under checkout, however, it states "Valid any 3 days from Jun 08 - 13, 2025" in small print.

HELP! I am so lost.

Me and my girlfriend are from the UK and have already booked to go to Disney and universal next year coincidently in the first couple of weeks whilst epic universe is open. We would both love to go to Epic universe to see what it’s about but we already have our tickets and obviously it’s not included. Surely they will release single day admission tickets, does anyone know when this will be and have an idea of how much this will cost?

Even if it has to be a 3 day pass. The app/ website still don't let me buy them. I tried contacting Universal and they won't respond. :(

Any idea when single day tickets for non pass holders will go on sale? Not overly interested in buying the big bundle

I was originally planning on not going for a while to let crowds die down a bit, but after watching stuff from the media days I might give in. I was thinking about getting tickets for August or September, but noticed that they only sell tickets that let you go to Epic Universe for 1 day, no matter how long you're staying. Optimally, I'd probably like to go to IoA for one day and Epic Universe for 2. I think it would be nice to be able to spend 2 days in the new park, taking my time and ensuring I'm able to get to everything, especially if wait times are still insane (and I think they will be for the foreseeable future).

If I'm understanding this right, there is currently no way to plan a trip where you can spend 2 consecutive (or nearly consecutive) days at Epic Universe, correct? They're only allowing guests to go for 1 day no matter what? F.Y.I., I'm not a Florida resident nor an annual passholder.

If this is the case, does anyone think this policy will change any time soon? I know they've been changing stuff with the tickets a lot, and obviously the park hasn't even opened yet.
