How Universal Orlando Will Steal the Show this Summer

Universal has big plans this summer with a new land, new nighttime shows and a daytime parade.

Universal Orlando Resort has announced big plans for summer 2024, going up against Disney Worldā€™s Tianaā€™s Bayou Adventure, and Seaworldā€™s Penguin Trek rollercoaster. Universal Orlando will be opening Dreamworks Land, adding a new daytime parade, displaying a new projection show in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and a dancing fountain show featuring music that includes the Jaws theme among other popular movie soundtracks (super excited about this one in particular!)

But to be fair, letā€™s not forget that pin trading is back at Walt Disney World.

Favorite characters from Shrek, Trolls, and Kung Fu Panda will come together in Dreamworks Land, an all-new section of one colorful new land at Universal Studios Florida.

Youā€™ll be able to meet Shrek and splash in his swamp. Scream with laughter on the all-new Trollercoaster.

On Trolls Trollercoaster, guests of all ages can take a ride on the iconic Caterbus escaping evil spiders as they speed along a bright orange and yellow track aboard this family-friendly rollercoaster.

Shrekā€™s Swamp for Little Ogres: This Shrek-themed play area will feature four fun slides, wet play areas, and a playground where the kiddos can climb, bounce, and splash around as well as venture into Shrekā€™s outhouse.

Shrekā€™s Swamp Meet: You can visit Shrekā€™s Swamp Meet to interact with Shrek, Princess Fiona, and Donkey, who will joke around and converse with guests, just outside of Shrekā€™s cottage.

Learn kung fu with Po. Plus, ignite your sense of wonder with the new live show DreamWorks Imagination Celebration.

Dreamworks Land will be located right outside the E.T. Adventure attraction at Universal Studios Florida. It opens on June 14, 2024. See more about Dreamworks Land in my post here.

Cinesational Water Show at Universal Studios Florida

Of all the new entertainment coming this summer, this is the one Iā€™m most looking forward to. This new show will feature dancing fountains and popular film scores. Universal says this show will have a powerful soundtrack featuring music from Harry Potter, Jurassic World, and of course Jaws! Love this! A nice nod to the attraction that was once housed in the lagoon.

Cinesational will be offered on select nights beginning June 14th.
