— a note from the studio

“Universal's third Orlando park, opened in May 2025 on a site south of the original resort. Five worlds spoke off a central Celestial Park: the Ministry of Magic Paris of the 1920s, Super Nintendo World with its Donkey Kong country, Dark Universe and its Frankenstein village, and the Isle of Berk from How to Train Your Dragon. The hub itself is a horticultural park with fountains and the Stardust Racers coaster threading the trees. The largest single park expansion the company has done in decades. from the studio

— about Universal Epic Universe

The place, in three passes.

A little of what's known, in case you fall down the rabbit hole — or want to go see it yourself.
— the place

Universal Epic Universe is the third theme park at Universal Orlando Resort, located on a 750-acre site about three kilometres south of the original Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure parks, near the intersection of Universal Boulevard and Sand Lake Road. It opened to the public on May 22, 2025, the largest single theme-park expansion Universal Destinations & Experiences has built in more than two decades. The park is organised as a central hub, Celestial Park, with four themed worlds radiating from it through portals.

— the visit

The five worlds are Celestial Park at the centre, with the Stardust Racers dual-launch coaster and the Constellation Carousel; the Wizarding World of Harry Potter — Ministry of Magic, set in 1920s Paris and at the British Ministry; Super Nintendo World, including Donkey Kong Country and Mine-Cart Madness; Dark Universe, the Universal Monsters land around the village of Darkmoor; and How to Train Your Dragon — Isle of Berk. Two on-site hotels, the Helios Grand and the Stella Nova, sit at the gate. Capacity is managed through reservations on peak days.

— the year

Central Florida's tourism calendar shapes the park's year. Late January through mid-March and the weeks after Labor Day are the quieter windows; spring break, summer, Thanksgiving, and the December holidays are the high-volume periods. Afternoon thunderstorms are routine from June through September, and rides built around outdoor queues will pause for lightning. The park is open year-round, with extended evening hours during summer and the winter holidays.

What people ask.

A few questions we get about Universal Epic Universe — and about bringing the piece home.
— about the place

In Orlando, Florida, on a 750-acre site about three kilometres south of Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure, near Universal Boulevard and Sand Lake Road. It is the third theme park at Universal Orlando Resort.

May 22, 2025. It is the largest single theme-park expansion Universal Destinations & Experiences has built in more than two decades, and the first new Orlando park from any operator in roughly 25 years.

Celestial Park at the centre, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter — Ministry of Magic, Super Nintendo World, Dark Universe, and How to Train Your Dragon — Isle of Berk. Each themed world is reached by a portal off the central hub.

The park's central hub and a themed land in its own right, designed as a horticultural park with fountains, gardens, and the Constellation Carousel. The Stardust Racers dual-launch coaster threads the trees along its outer edge.

A Wizarding World expansion set in 1920s Paris and the British Ministry of Magic, drawn from the Fantastic Beasts era. Its anchor attraction is Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry, a large-scale dark ride.

Yes. Two Universal hotels sit at the park's gate: the Helios Grand Hotel inside the main entrance plaza and the Stella Nova Resort on the resort road. Both opened with the park in May 2025.

— about the piece in your home

Yes. The piece reads as the park itself — Celestial Park, the portal-and-tower silhouette, the Florida sky — rather than a single intellectual property. A Medium or Large works above a desk or in a home cinema.

Maximalist, Eclectic, and Tropical-modern interiors. The saturated palette and architectural geometry hold a wall alongside framed posters and pop-cultural objects, without leaning into themed-room kitsch.

It is. Painterly park art has taken hold in the collector and game-room categories over the last few years, and the tile reads as a gallery piece rather than merchandise — a quieter way to honour the park.

Above a standard sofa, the Large holds the wall. For a longer wall or a home-theatre feature, the 4-tile Mural extends the panorama; the 9-tile Mural is for a dedicated wall such as a media room or stairwell.

Yes, in either Dura Satin or Matte. Both finishes are scratch-resistant and humidity-tolerant, suitable for a backsplash or shower wall. The Glossy finish is best kept to dry display walls and framed pieces.

A soft microfibre cloth and warm water. The colour is infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, so it will not lift with ordinary cleaning. Avoid abrasive pads and bleach-based products.

Yes. Every WenderVista tile is curated and hand-finished in our Knoxville, Tennessee studio. The Epic Universe piece is part of our Florida atlas and is not licensed from Universal or any third party.
