Universal Orlando Resort has added three new dates to Universal Nights, the after-hours event debuting at Universal Epic Universe this fall, citing popular demand. The new dates are Saturday, October 24th, Friday, November 6th, and Friday, November 20th, joining the previously announced October 3rd and October 17th dates. Tickets for October 17th have sold out, but tickets remain available for all four other dates.
Universal Nights Adds Three New Dates at Epic Universe After Early Demand
IN THIS ARTICLE:
- Universal has added three new Universal Nights dates: October 24th, November 6th, and November 20th
- Tickets for the original October 17th date have already sold out
- What guests can expect from the after-hours event, including pricing and hours
Universal Nights Expands to Five Dates
Universal Orlando has announced three additional Universal Nights dates at Epic Universe due to popular demand. Universal Nights now runs five nights instead of two for its debut fall season at Epic Universe. The three new dates join the previously announced dates of October 3rd and October 17th, as we reported when Universal first unveiled the after-hours event. Tickets for October 17th are already sold out.
Both November dates fall on Fridays, a first for the event. The original two dates were both Saturdays. That gives guests more flexibility in planning around the event, especially those hoping to avoid weekend crowds elsewhere in Central Florida this fall.
What to Expect at Universal Nights
Universal Nights is a limited-capacity, separately ticketed after-hours event at Epic Universe. It runs from 9pm to midnight on each scheduled date. Tickets include nighttime access to attractions, entertainment, and character interactions across all five lands, plus complimentary specialty snacks and beverages. The structure mirrors Disney’s own after-hours events at Walt Disney World.
Guests holding a Universal Nights ticket can arrive as early as 7pm, two hours ahead of the event’s official start time. That early entry window effectively turns a ticket into five hours of park time on event nights. Tickets start at $179.99 per person.
Story So Far
- Universal Orlando first announced Universal Nights as a new after-hours event coming to Epic Universe, initially set for two dates in October.
- Universal has now added three additional dates in October and November, while confirming that the original October 17th date has sold out.
Universal hasn’t said whether more dates could be added if demand keeps up. We’ll continue monitoring ticket availability for the remaining dates as the event approaches.
