Overview
- The Horror Make‑Up Show at Universal Studios Florida, which closed Tuesday, is now scheduled to return in Winter 2027 after an earlier late‑2026 target.
- Universal says the reimagined production will feature classic and modern horror properties and keep the irreverent, comedy‑driven style guests know.
- Heavy turnout for Monday's final performances prompted wristband distribution outside the Pantages Theater to manage entry and seating.
- Annual passholders were given reserved seating from May 4 through May 10 as fans lined up for last looks at the 1990 opening‑day attraction.
- The closure removes a high‑capacity indoor show that helps absorb crowds, which could mean longer waits nearby during hot, busy periods, and Universal has not confirmed any rumored IP partners such as Blumhouse.
