Universal: One-day Epic Universe tickets now on sale

Universal Orlando is now selling more tickets to Epic Universe, including a one-day pass to the new theme park currently under construction.

Admission is available as of June 1, although Epic officially opens to the public on May 22.  Tickets are now on sale for dates through the rest of 2025. The price varies by date.

The current one-day price for Epic ranges between $139 and $199. According to Universal’s website, tickets for June 1 are $179. They fall to $139 after Labor Day, typically a less congested time for theme parks. Admission surges to $199 for this ticket in the final week of 2025. (Tickets for children ages 3 to 9 are generally $5 less.)

The resort also added a two-day pass for Florida residents that includes one day at Epic, then another day at Universal Studios or Islands of Adventure. Prices range between $232 and $340, depending on date. (Price is determined by rate on the first day of pass.)  Some versions allow park-to-park movement between Islands and Studios on the non-Epic day.

Previous offers were multiday, sometimes with on-property hotel stays, but included just one day at Epic Universe.

Universal says this round of sales represents all the remaining general admission tickets for 2025. Add-on elements such as Express Passes and VIP Tours will go on sale soon, Universal said in a news release Thursday.

Epic Universe is located about 2 miles southeast of the company’s original theme parks. It’s near the Orange County Convention Center. The new park will include themed lands named Super Nintendo World, Wizarding World of Harry Potter — Ministry of Magic, How to Train Your Dragon — Isle of Berk and Dark Universe, which features classic monsters.  Universal will operate three hotels in the Epic area, including Grand Helios, which opens with the park on May 22 and will have a dedicated Epic entrance. Its Stella Nova resort opened in January, and Terra Luna is scheduled to debut in late March.
