Take a look inside the Epic Universe Preview Center! As the opening date announcement for Epic Universe creeps closer, media previews for the Epic Universe Preview Center have begun.

The Epic Universe Preview Center will open later this month ahead of the grand Epic Universe opening in 2025. Inside the store is a birds-eye model of the park, compatible with an augmented reality app, plus brand-new photo opportunities and plenty of exclusive merchandise items.

Before you even step inside the preview center, the window displays showcase the medallions for each land. The main entrance to the theme park is a giant Chronos in which these medallions slot into place.

Inside the Epic Universe Preview Center

Most excitingly, the preview center contains a model of the entire Epic Universe theme park. Details not yet shown in Universal’s teaser videos, including some of the intricate design details in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic and Dark Universe, have surfaced.

This model also pairs with an AR mobile app (available on IOS and Android.) Once downloaded, guests can interact with the miniature theme park. We won't spoil the entire thing, but Stardust Racers will come alive with shooting comets and dragons will breathe fire, to name just a couple of fun interactions.

Epic Universe Merchandise 

Epic Universe merchandise has already started to make its way into Universal Orlando, though the preview center will be the best place to find exclusive pieces ahead of the park opening. We’re eyeing up every single piece of Dark Universe merchandise.

Additionally, the Epic Universe Preview Center will feature four portal photo opportunities for each of the lands. The artwork featured inside the Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic and Dark Universe is yet to be shared by Universal.

We’ve also heard some brand-new music playing in the background, which looks to be the main theme for the Celestial Park area.

The Epic Universe Preview Center will open this month (date TBA) at Universal CityWalk Orlando, at the former Legacy Store. Until it opens to the public, guests can enjoy a looped teaser video of Epic Universe on a giant screen outside.
