Spellbinding attractions situated within immersive lands include “The Wizarding World of Harry Potter TM, “Despicable Me Minion Mayhem” and “Super Silly Fun Land” and “Springfield,” located adjacent to the “The Simpsons Ride.” Popular rides include “Transformers: The Ride—3D,” “Jurassic Park Ride,” “Revenge of the Mummy” indoor rollercoaster and “AMC’s The Walking Dead”attraction.
The world-famous, behind-the-scenes Studio Tour remains Universal Studios Hollywood’s signature attraction, staying true to its roots of immersing guests in the awe-inspiring world of movie-making magic.
Helmed with an expert guide, the Studio Tour provides remarkable access to movie sets on a real working studio lot bringing millions of guests onto areas of an authentic movie and television studio typically restricted to authorized movie production personnel and into that elusive world motivated by three compelling words: lights, camera, action.
From soundstages and productions sets to such thrilling attractions “King Kong 360 3D” inspired by director Peter Jackson’s blockbuster movie and “Fast & Furious-Supercharged,” based on the global blockbuster film franchise, the Studio Tour places guests at the front line of Hollywood movie-making.
As Universal Studios Hollywood looks towards the future, 2018 will offer guests another exciting year of entertainment including the introduction of the all-new DreamWorks Theatre featuring Kung Fu Panda.
