Universal announces a spectacular closing for its visitors
We have news that many have been waiting for and that will make nights at Universal Orlando even more magical.
Universal Orlando Resort confirmed that Epic Universe will feature its own nighttime show with fireworks, an experience that promises to be one of the most exciting highlights of a visit to the park.
Starting July 7, 2026, visitors to Epic Universe will be able to enjoy “Universal Celestial Goodnight,” a show that combines music, dancing fountains, state-of-the-art lighting, and a spectacular fireworks finale lighting up the Orlando sky.
And honestly, we believe it will be one of those moments that no one will want to miss.
Epic Universe continues to grow
Since its opening, Epic Universe has quickly become one of the most impressive parks at Universal Orlando.
The adventures of SUPER NINTENDO WORLD, the excitement of How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, the magic of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic, and the darkness of Dark Universe were already captivating thousands of visitors every day.
Now, Universal is adding something many travelers have been asking for: a big show to end the day.
Because after exploring incredible worlds all day, there's nothing better than ending the experience by watching the sky light up with fireworks.

An experience we recommend having
If you're planning your Universal Orlando vacation for 2026 or 2027, our advice is very simple: book time to stay until closing.
Many times, travelers use their last hours to revisit attractions or head back to the hotel early, but with this new feature, we believe it will be worth staying a few extra minutes.
Nighttime shows often become some of the most special travel memories, and all indications are that Universal wants Epic Universe to have a finale that measures up to the world's best theme parks.
