Universal Celestial Goodnight to Debut at Epic Universe on July 7
Universal says the large-scale music, fountain, lighting and fireworks production will extend evenings at Epic Universe to boost dining and retail revenue.
Overview
- Universal will debut Universal Celestial Goodnight on Tuesday, July 7, 2026, as Epic Universe’s first permanent nightly spectacular.
- The show combines an original score with nearly 600 synchronized lighting fixtures, more than 350 fountains and about seven million LED lights, and ends with fireworks over the Celestial Park lagoon.
- Segments will feature moments inspired by SUPER NINTENDO WORLD, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic, and Dark Universe to celebrate the park’s lands.
- Universal prepared the production over the past year with visible infrastructure work, a trademark filing, hiring of pyrotechnic staff, and recent audio and fireworks rehearsals that were audible to nearby hotels.
- Park operators expect the finale to keep visitors in the park later, concentrate crowds around Celestial Park before close, and raise evening spending at restaurants and shops while signaling ongoing investment in Epic Universe.
