Universal Studios Florida Overview
Beginnings
Universal Studios Florida opened in 1990 as Universal Orlando Resort’s first theme park, designed to give guests a behind-the-scenes look at movie-making magic.
Unlike traditional theme parks, Universal Studios combined thrilling rides, live shows, and interactive experiences based on Hollywood’s biggest films and TV shows. Classic attractions like Jaws, Earthquake, and Kongfrontation made guests feel like they were stepping into the action.
Over the years, the park evolved, replacing older rides with more immersive, technology-driven experiences. The addition of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Diagon Alley in 2014 marked a turning point, making Universal Studios Florida a must-visit destination for Harry Potter fans worldwide.
