ORLANDO, Fla. — Universal Orlando Resort is showing just how epic its upcoming fourth Florida park will be.

The resort announced the five lands that will make up the new Epic Universe theme park.

  • Celestial Park
  • The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Ministry of Magic
  • Super Nintendo World
  • How to Train Your Dragon - Isle of Berk
  • Dark Universe

Spread out among the lands will be 50 new attractions, entertainment, dining and shopping experiences.
Celestial Park

This is the first land that guests will visit and the land we know the most about as of writing. Universal described it as being the heart of Universal's Epic Universe, which is full of gardens and water and surrounded by "astronomical and mythological elements."

It's also where guests will come face-to-face with Starfall Racers, the first roller coaster to greet them at the park.

Celestial Park is how guests get to the four other lands, using what Universal is calling "majestic portals."

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Ministry of Magic

According to Universal, this is where muggles and wizards will get to live out their wizard dreams from the "Fantastic Beasts" films with the iconic Ministry of Magic from the "Harry Potter" series.

Super Nintendo World

This world brings your favorite childhood video games to life. It includes attractions themed to famed Nintendo characters, including Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach and Donkey Kong.

This is a larger version of the new land at Universal Studio Hollywood that opened in 2023.

How to Train Your Dragon - Isle of Berk

Guests can soar with dragons and have their own Viking adventures in a land based on the popular "How to Train Your Dragon" franchise.

Dark Universe

In this world of myth and mystery, get ready to encounter everything from Dr. Victoria Frankenstein's experiments to monsters.

Universal's Epic Universe will also bring three new resort hotels to the Universal Orlando Resort, including one inside the park that has a private entrance into Celestial Park.

Universal expects to release more over the coming months about Universal Epic Universe and the opening date of the new interactive preview center coming to Universal CityWalk later this year.
