Universal Orlando’s Epic Universe Is Progressing Nicely

While we wait for D23 for Disney to make announcements for new additions to Walt Disney World and Disneyland, we have a look at the massive progress being made at Universal Orlando’s next theme park- Epic Universe.

Thanks to @bioreconstruct on X, we have a look at the current construction progress.

Let’s take a look!

The Helios Grand Hotel

The Helios will be the hotel that opens into the theme park. It’s going to be grand and likely very expensive.

This is the area my family is most looking forward to. It’s going to be amazing and we can’t wait!
