Finnegan’s Bar & Grill at Universal Studios Florida Marked Closed Through 2026

Universal has not explained the extended shutdown, raising concerns about reduced sit-down capacity during peak seasons.

Overview

  • New on-site signage states the restaurant is closed "through 2026," with multiple outlets photographing the notice.
  • Universal has issued no public statement clarifying the reason, scope, or any detailed timeline beyond the posted sign.
  • Finnegan’s is one of the park’s few full-service, air-conditioned dining spots, making its absence notable for guest comfort and scheduling.
  • Coverage warns nearby restaurants could face heavier demand during Halloween Horror Nights and the winter holidays.
  • One outlet characterizes the closure as a lengthy refurbishment with a potential late-2026 reopening, a timeline that remains unconfirmed.
