Universal Studios Hollywood Sets April Reopening Date!

Universal Studios Hollywood is gearing up to open their doors!

The California theme park has been closed for over a year due to the pandemic, but will be welcoming visitors back starting April 16th.

“We are incredibly thrilled to finally be able to open Universal Studios Hollywood, return team members to work and welcome guests back to enjoy our amazing rides,” Karen Irwin, President & COO, Universal Studios Hollywood shared in a statement, via THR. “It has been a very challenging year and we are overjoyed to have arrived at this moment.”

Though the park will be opening back up, it will only be open to California residents. The City Walk portion of the park has already been open since last summer.

According to the Universal Studios Hollywood website, “while most rides will be operational, some rides, attractions and shows will reopen at a later date as the theme park complies with government restrictions. Universal Studios Hollywood continues to work in partnership with health and government officials to implement new health and safety procedures that include physical distancing, required face coverings, and significant limits on in-park capacity.”
