Dark Arts at Hogwarts Castle (USH)

[bob albert]

Debating going to universal on my trip but the early closings thus no night show will make it unlikely

 

[Chris]

Don't worry...its planned to return 5/24-5/27, 6/22-8/11. Watch for days when park hours increase.

We're heading out this Saturday. The hours are until 9:00pm, however a showing isn't 'officially' scheduled until next week. One can always hope though....
We do have our passes, just hoping to catch it again before the crowds start showing up again. (Missed the drones last time out).

So cool that universal used the drone as a dinosaur in there new as on Twitter, I wonder if they could use the drone to fly over the boat in predator cove would be really cool.

 

[Mad Dog]

I wonder when they're going to debut it in Orlando. It would make sense to do it when HHN starts.

 

[Viator]

So it sounds like they may not be done with the show yet; as they did Pyro testing last night on-top of Hogwarts.

Could the Drones be used for Grinchmas? Or be added to the Christmas Harry Potter Show?

I'm going to take a crack: The drones for the patronus are being moved to the Orlando resort in a similar fashion to when we got the Osaka Trike a few months back.

Our Trike is a new build and not the Osaka trike, FWIW.

Orlando got their own set of drones.

Orlando got their own set of drones.

So my questions again.....are they looking into adding the Drones to other Night time Shows or getting more drones for Christmas Events.

Every Show I saw People loved the Drones and while the effects on the castle are very cool it seemed like the drones steal the show in a way I'd love to see the Christmas Potter Show add....or Grinchmas have added during the Tree Lightening Events.

You ask that like people here know and are willing to leak what Universal's entertainment plans are 4 months from now. Email Universal and ask them lol. We didn't even know about Dark Arts til a few weeks before it debuted. Even then, we didn't know what it was.

:shrug:

Lol

I was just asking, many people here seem to have inside knowledge of the going's on in the park....People on the forums even said "I can't say what but something is Coming to Hogwarg's" a few weeks later the show was announced.

So just asking since you seemed knowledgeable

 

[Viator]

As a heads up, there will be another test tonight (i forgot that the community line is a thing).

My levels of knowledge are extremely limited. I mostly repeat what other insiders have posted here in the past, so people assume i'm an insider lol. I don't know anything about anything.

I have heard there were many challenges regarding the use of drones at Universal Studios Hollywood. Logistics played a heavy role and costs was extremely high. I would keep an eye on the netting over the Studio Tour queue to confirm or deny. It's not looking good for the drones to return anytime soon. Sad.

 

[ItsAtrap]

The drones should return for Spring Peak. But not Christmas. I hear they will be doing the same Christmas show as the last couple of years.

An excellent indicator is what Chris said; when the nets go up over the Tour queue the drones are returning.

Yeah the netting is gone from what I remember on my visit on Saturday.
