From the creators of Halloween Horror Nights comes a brand new event at Universal Studios Hollywood, aimed at guests new and old of some of Universal Studios’ most beloved films and productions. In the Spring of 2025, guests will be invited to purchase tickets for an event unlike anything Universal Studios has offered before – a separately ticketed event that will immerse guests in the worlds of sci-fi, fantasy, gaming, and anime on a scale that only Universal Studios is capable of.
This limited-run, after-hours event will feature fan-favorite properties like Star Trek, Back to the Future, and Dungeons & Dragons, allowing guests from all walks of life and all different fan groups to come together at this incredible venue for a night of exclusive experiences offered by one of the leading names in themed entertainment.
“For decades, Universal Studios Hollywood has been a leader in creating and executing innovative special events,” said Scott Strobl, the Executive Vice President and General Manager of Universal Studios Hollywood. “From our esteemed Halloween Horror Nights event to this all-new Universal Fan Fest Nights experience, we are thrilled about how this breakthrough new program will continue to elevate the guest experience.”
Featuring themed foods and exclusive merchandise, including collectibles, apparel, and accessories, Fan Fast Nights invites guests to embrace their favorite characters, TV shows, movies and more for this lifetime event. A celebration of theme park and pop culture, the offerings released for this event reflect the biggest, most pervasive properties and themes that have been at the forefront of the fan experience for decades. Star Trek, being one of television’s most timeless franchises, and Dungeons & Dragons, which celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2024, have both had profound impact on the fan experience and the way that fans interact with the media they consume. Star Trek itself is a cornerstone in the culture of fan experiences, having played a significant part in shaping fan communities into what they are today. By honoring Star Trek as one of the first properties included in this exciting new event, Universal shows an understanding and respect for the fan experience – which is essential when creating an event of this scope.
From unique experiences to themed shopping and entertainment to cosplay in the park, guests will be invited to experience these worlds in entirely new ways that will bring them closer to these fantastic worlds of sci-fi and fantasy than ever before.
