Universal Orlando

Universal Orlando is a major entertainment resort in Orlando, Florida, and the flagship property of Universal Destinations and Experiences. Expanding from the opening of Universal Studios Florida in 1990, it grew into a large resort with multiple theme parks, a water park, hotels, and Universal CityWalk. Key milestones included the 1999 debut of Islands of Adventure and CityWalk, the 2010 arrival of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and the 2017 opening of Volcano Bay. In 2025, Universal Epic Universe became the fourth theme park. Seasonal events, hotels, and strong attendance helped transform it from a single movie-themed park into one of the world’s most visited resort destinations.
