Recently Universal Studios Hollywood added an option to purchase an early entry ticket for Super Nintendo World. This is in addition to your already purchased ticket and grants you access one hour early before park open to the land. Opening weekend for this ticket has already sold out more than two weeks in advance and is showing strong demand so far.
Super Nintendo World officially opens on February 17th and all tickets including early entry tickets can be purchased here.
Well folks, we are just getting word from ABC 7 that a man has been rushed to the hospital in an unknown condition after someone called 911 reporting that there was a possible drowning near the show. This is a developing story, but we will keep you updated every step of the way, for now fingers crossed that everyone in the situation is okay.
UPDATE: The incident happened during the afternoon showing. A spokesperson told ABC, “Details surrounding the event are under review. As always, safety is our top priority in our day-to-day operations.” The performer was on one of the stunt towers and fell into the water on queue as is typical during all showings, but the performer did not come back out of the water. Other performers rushed to grab the performer from under water and took him backstage and they cancelled the show. Stay tuned for more.
Welcome to a brand new segment here on this blog and that’s right it features construction updates. Expect updates from mostly Disney and Universal as I have passes to those parks so I am able to go way more often than any other SoCal theme park. Today we are going to take a look at my Universal Studios Hollywood trip from last Friday where I went into the park to check out Halloween Horror Nights (HHN), Secret Life of Pets (SLOP), Super Nintendo, and Jurassic World construction, so let’s get right to it!
Halloween Horror Nights
There are two visible HHN sites under construction at this time. There is one on the upper lot by SLOP and there is another one hidden behind Mummy that you can see as you go down the Starway escalators.
I have not seen any rumors online about what the Upper Lot maze will be, but it is highly rumored that the maze near Mummy will be Killer Clowns From Outer Space. This seems to be correct because the front of the maze looks like a Circus tent.
Secret Life Of Pets
This ride has seen tons of progress over the past few months with the entire show building just about enclosed and work is rapidly progressing on the front facades of the attraction.
I think this will be a wonderful addition to the park as it is rumored to have little to no screens. It is rumored to be an omnimover or track based dark ride. It is hard to see through the scrim on camera, but in person you can see they are working on each show scene on the second level of the attraction.
Jurassic World
This area has really shaped up to be so beautiful and so much of an improvement from what was there previously. The remodeled Jurassic Cafe and Jurassic Outfitters fits a very modern vibe and the new Isla Nu-Bar is a great beverage option. Universal should be announcing an opening date any day now for this revamped attraction.
I also love the new grey and blue color tones painted around the area to match the aesthetic of the movies. If you would like to see a full walk around of the area plus Jurassic World testing and a close up of the boats, then click this link.
Super Nintendo World
Lastly, we come to Super Nintendo construction which is rapidly progressing, but the area and show building are so large it is hard to see the progress because there is just so much to be done.
So that is it guys, I really hope you enjoyed my first photo update and want me to do more! Comment below what you think of all the Universal Studios construction and keep reading for some special offers on your next vacation!
