Universal Studios Tours – The Best Time To Visit

As with all theme parks, there is a good time and a

bad time to visit the Universal Studios Tours theme

park. You should strive to visit at a time when the

park is less crowded to get the most out of the tour

and the park.



Weekends and school holidays should be avoided.

Most of the visitors at these times are local people

who live in the area, and it becomes very crowded,

with very long lines. The park is closed on

Thanksgiving and Christmas, so don’t plan a visit

during those times.



Visit the Universal Studios website to find out which

movies are in production, or which movies will be in

production at the time of your visit. This may play in

the decision as to when to visit. If you visit during

the time of a movie production, you are likely to see

the movie set, and you may even get the opportunity

to see the stars in action!



When you do visit, plan to arrive well before the

gates open. You should arrive at least thirty minutes

in advance. You should buy your tickets in advance

for added convenience. This can be done through a

travel agent, over the phone, or online. Tickets can

even be printed out using your printer.
