Epic Universe fans have something new to look forward to after the sun goes down. Universal Orlando has announced after-hours events at its newest theme park, giving guests a chance to experience Epic Universe in a more relaxed, crowd-light setting.
The events, called Universal Nights, are designed to let attendees enjoy the park's rides and attractions with the added perk of unlimited snacks and soft drinks included in the ticket price — a nice bonus for anyone who's felt the sting of theme-park snack costs during regular operating hours.
After-hours events have long been a popular format at competing Orlando parks, offering a quieter, more leisurely way to take in attractions without the daytime rush. Universal bringing that concept to Epic Universe signals the park is settling into a fuller entertainment calendar not long after its debut.
For Florida locals and resort guests planning a summer visit, the announcement is worth keeping on the radar as a potentially great way to stretch an Epic Universe trip into the evening. Details on specific dates and ticket pricing were not included in the announcement summary.
