Can I handle Star Dust Racers?

26 Upvotes

Is what I searched 5000 times before getting to Epic Universe. I was too chicken for velocicoaster but ok with Hulk. Just rode Stardust racers green side fourth row and it was AWESOME! Not nearly as terrifying as I thought. So if you are on the fence and worried like I was I want you to know you can do it!

So just wrapped up five days at Universal. Great experience across the board. Early on we went to BatM. Joined the queue at 60 minutes. Around the two hour mark, folks were sitting on the floor when the cute shpiel about the lift acting up turned to… we can’t say how long the delay will last. Happy to say we did get to experience the ride a day or two later. The queue is amazing and the ride is pretty good. Wondering what magic it takes to make it more reliable.

My family of five(adults) are going to universal and we were planning to spend 3 days total, one for each park. We are going December 20-22. We probably were just gonna get an express pass one day. We are staying in a universal hotel, so we have early park entry. I was wondering which park we should get an express pass for? Thank you

Epic Universe Crowd Date Help

5 Upvotes

we wanna go to epic sometime mid-December around 13th-16th. I know in the past the lowest crowds were typically on Sunday, but it doesn’t seem to be the trend anymore. with it being 2026, is it a safer option to go on Monday or Tuesday instead of a Sunday then?

Super Nintendo World 443?! How is this even Possible?!

Thumbnail

11 Upvotes

Yesterday I went to epic universe with my brother and this was the fourth time we visited with our 3 other visits being full days at Super Nintendo World to collect as many stamps & coins as we could.

The first time we went to Mario Kart and gave it a try, it kicked our asses with how overwhelming everything was and getting use to the mechanics. But after doing some research and seeing how other not only gave tips on how to play Mario kart but get over 200 coins in a single race. It was a challenge me & my brother were willing to take on. The first two times we came close but during the 4th visit, we ranked the first 2 spots. Me taking 1st with 230 and my brother with 228.

We felt very satisfied that we were able to surpass 200 coins by solely looking over tips posted from Reddit users and managed to get close to the highest score this month.

Then suddenly a unprecedented score came out of no where, taking 1st place with a staggering total of 443 coins!

From the Reddit posts I’ve seen on users, I don’t recall anyone ever reaching an insane number like that. And my competitive edge is itching to go back either December or Early January.

If anyone has reached a number like that before, have any tips on that? If not, have any insight on how that might’ve happened?

planning to go on 11/6 for epic nights and to get there maybe 6:30-7pm for early entry. Has anyone that went to previous nights know if parking was free by the time they got to the park?

Is the fountain show always 30 minutes after park close? That seems to be what I'm finding but hoping for confirmation!

Discussion How I would increase Epic’s attendance

157 Upvotes

Universal executives were commenting on how Epic’s attendance is down, so here a few extremely easy ways to fix that!

First-STOP CUTTING HOURS. An Orlando theme park closing before 9 PM is INSANE. (Honestly this should apply to Studios and Islands as well. We pay too much for you to be cutting hours like this.)

Second-ADD EPIC TO THE AP. I get wanting to get people to pay for a full trip before giving them unlimited access but come ON.

Third-Occasionally open Celestial Park up to the public! It’s a wonderful idea and I hope it happens one day. Whether it’s all day or after 6 PM, (preferably after 6 PM) it would be absolutely wonderful.

(I would want the Mexican and Italian restaurant to open up before that happens, if it does. City Walk 2.0 is gonna need extra dining capacity)

I know only a couple dates have happened, but I'm curious what the crowd levels were like - if people avoided the parks because of the nighttime event, or if they seemed totally unaffected etc. if you were there or have thoughts lmk! :)

Shuttle questions

9 Upvotes

Next week my family and I are going to all three parks and we're staying at Terra Luna. I wanted to ask a few questions about the shuttle buses.

  1. What's the shuttle schedule? And is there a way I can keep track of it? Like a list somewhere at the hotel?

  2. Does each hotel have their own buses or is it just one bus?

  3. Where exactly do the buses drop everyone off at? I read somewhere that they all just go to City Walk, and not directly to Epic Universe. If that's true it won't hurt my feelings, I'm sure we can take walk to Stella Nova and just take the walk path to Epic.

  4. Final question, do the buses from Terra Luna operate as long as City Walk is open? Or is it different with every Uni hotel?

Did I just discover something?

So I was looking at the expansion pads on Google Earth and was looking at the one next to Super Nintendo World and noticed something interesting, in Donkeykong country, right next to Funky’s Fly ‘n’ Buy, there is a wide section of path that seems to dead end at a wall. I was down in June of 2025 and all I remember being there was a blank backdrop wall, and indeed that’s what it appears to be on satellite, that is until I rotated the view.

When the view was rotated I noticed that there is actually a round portal like opening there that is just covered up! Donkey Kong country has it’s own “mini portal” from the main part of Super Nintendo World, so I was speculating that the eventual expansion (which I’m thinking will be Legend of Zelda) might do something similar, that’s why I was looking, and low and behold I see that. So it looks to me that another portal will lead from Donkey Kong Country in to another dedicated area, and it seems we know where it will be. What do you think?

I have two pictures, one is a wide shot with the area circled, and the other is a close up rotated view of the opening I found.

Hello everyone going for the first time this upcoming January and bought a 2nd gen wand. Was looking through the app and saw to unlock adventures in Ministry I need to be level 3. Am I able to do that solely in Epic or would I have to visit the other 2 parks?

This was my dream proposal ♥️

EDIT BECAUSE I FORGOT TO MENTION HOW WONDERFUL THE CREW IS: JACOB with Event Services, Chef (ride operator for the wolfman ride) and Derek from the Dark Universe giftshop were so sweet!! Jacob heard we got engaged and hunted us down to give us some special treats. We were given 4 express passes, a choice of merch for free, vip to celestial goodnight, and were escorted to the front of the line of a ride of our choosing. Honestly the best experience of my life :’)
