Universal Fan Fest Nights - Coming 2025

[Rideguy70]

Toothsome is selling a special D&D milkshake.



A small photo op has been added just before the boarding groups for Star Trek


It was nearly HHN crowd levels last night right at 7pm. And lines for One Piece meets were already at 30+ min right at 7pm. But walk through lines, while initially semi-long, do die down in about 1-2 hours of opening.

Also, a lot of merch updates... some of this may be the merch that is only sold during FFN hours...

Update on the 49 dollar upgrade in park

It includes early access, that’s the best deal I’ve ever heard for a theme park. Fan fest is easily worth 50 bucks especially when you can start at 5:30 pm and stay until 2AM

Just what a deal, good on you universal

Also the tram is so great right now because hill valley is a mini attraction on it right now, I love how the park got some limited time food and extra little touches in the park that are just free and apart of your normal ticket

Aw man, where was that said? I had no idea about this and yesterday night I just bought an AP discounted ticket + early access for a friend, which was $84 total. If I knew this was going to be a thing, I wouldn't have bought my two day ticket either.

I guess on the bright side I don't have to worry about the event and early access selling out for the day by the time we even get there, especially since my next and potentially last visit will be on the 15th.

I just found out last weekend

Its just....the best deal for any theme park I currently see. Along with the fact a day ticket holder gets a second day free and could upgrade for 50 bucks USH is killing it giving people reasons to visit who have not been in a while

I went to FFN last night... WOW. What a blast. I absolutely loved it. The only offering I found a little underwhelming was Star Trek, but even then I still really enjoyed it. I really liked how immersive it was, just needed to be a bit longer and have more personality imo. I loved everything else though. BTTF and Dungeons & Dragons especially are tied for me tbh. I spent nearly 2-3 hours experiencing both, having done 7 runs of D&D. I got 4 different casts for D&D and it was so cool getting to see different interpretations of the same story/dialogue. The Yoshi egg hunt/M&G was also extremely cute!!! I got to meet Pink Yoshi and wanted to cry because of how cute that was. Highly recommend this event to everyone. Please go so we can get it back next year and maybe even have it come to Florida. I need more FFN

Glad you had fun how long to meet Pink Yoshi and around what time?

It was probably like 10-15 minutes and it was around 11pm

 

[Jerroddragon]

Good to hear, I've heard people in there for 90-2 hours so 15 mins is very fair

Waited 45 for Blue Yoshi last night!!

Enjoyed Star Trek more than expected and liked D&D least than I expected, but that’s largely because the audio mixing was really tough.

Woah, that's surprising to hear. I might bank on this on my next visit.

What time did you do it? Cause with the data so far I'm now contemplating either doing it early on in the night or later in the night.

Was this by asking guest services or the Universal Box office? I checked the ticket page last night and there didn't seem to be anything like this listed.

The deal is only in the park, thats the only ad advertisement you will see and wont be sold on sold out nights

 

[BriefCasey]

So like a sign or something? I thought it was by asking guest services.

Most likely, just like HHN has signs for express & FFP upgrades, it is similar. Same for the signs in the day saying to "upgrade your ticket" for HHN, express, etc

It was at the middle plaza area and think I also heard near the mummy they were as well but 100% its at the plaza 49 bucks to upgrade only the day of and event can't be sold out. All you have to do is be in the park does not matter what ticket you used to get in and confirmed this with a TM i talked to

Heads up: FFN is being extended to May 28th. Ads are rolling out right now.

 

[saint.piss]

 

[Jerroddragon]

So the last day is on a Wednesday night?

Cool its one more week

 

[Viator]

Adding something in; May 28th is a Grad Bash night. So unless if they worked something out with school groups, then that final date might be a club and it might be for May 27th as the final date instead.

Thanks for pointing this out.....something about this feels off. I dont doubt they could run it for another week but ending in the middle of the week and unlike HHN there is no holiday. So lets wait and see

 

[Jake S]

unlike HHN there is no holiday. So lets wait and see

memorial day is on the 26th, yeah?

 

[Jerroddragon]

memorial day is on the 26th, yeah?

Sorry what I ment was HHN is around Halloween

This even can be anytime and isn't about a holiday

Also the hours for USH is 8 PM....so either

1) the hours get cut and that sucks for people going that weekend
2) They only let people with event wrist bands do things until 8PM? But seems like the TMS will suffer for this
3) This ad is wrong and ment May 18th....
