Universal Orlando Resort is changing the way guests identify parking locations in its north garage, replacing the current three themed sections with five level-specific names.
The existing north garage sections are Jurassic Park, King Kong and Jaws. Under the new arrangement, its levels will be named Trolls, E.T., Shrek, Minions and Transformers. Trolls-themed signage is already being installed on the first floor, where Jurassic Park signs have been replaced with illuminated pink graphics.
Crews are also replacing row markers and signs at stairs and escalators. The updated signs are designed to show both a guest’s parking level and the level used for theme park and CityWalk access: level 3, Shrek. Portions of the north garage’s first floor are closed while work continues.
The new E.T. designation will be on level 2 of the north garage. That change means the current E.T. section in the south garage will be removed. The north garage’s E.T. visuals use a light-blue color scheme and an icon of Elliott riding his bicycle with E.T. in the basket.

Undercover Tourist is an authorized seller of Universal Orlando tickets, often at a discount off gate price.
The south garage currently remains arranged as Spider-Man, The Cat in the Hat and E.T. sections across its five floors. Universal has not announced the final themed layout for that garage. Old parking-section signs are still visible in parts of the resort as the north garage conversion continues.
The shift expands the resort’s garage labeling from six intellectual-property names to 10. Guests visiting Universal Orlando’s parks or CityWalk may want to note their floor and new character-themed section when returning to their vehicle.
