Whilst you can upgrade in resort, we would advise against this as there is no guarantee that you'll be able to visit on your chosen day, as Universal will be managing the capacity of the new park to ensure everyone has a great experience.

As a result of this, your tickets allow you to visit Universal Epic Universe for 1 day within your ticket's 14 day window.

In 2025 Universal are limiting capacity to ensure everyone has a great experience, so your tickets allow you 1 day's access to Universal Epic Universe, in addition to 14-days of unlimited access to the other 3 parks.
