Universal aims to cut into Disney’s theme park lead with massive new Orlando attraction

<!–>

Universal Epic Universe opens in Orlando, Florida in 46 days.

The park is currently testing out operations for team members, their families and the media. On Saturday, FOX Business got a sneak peek at the massive attraction that features portals into “five immersive worlds” that offer shopping, dining, new rides and experiences. 

Park guests’ first portal entry takes them into Celestial Park, also called “the heart of Universal Epic Universe” in a media release. It features gardens with lush foliage, pathways and walkways to bring back the “park” element of a theme park. 

Imagine Celestial Park as the hub of a wheel, with the portals to each land as spokes. But it offers its own attractions, too, with the park’s most intense roller coaster, Stardust Racers and Constellation Carousel.
