Universal Orlando Confirms Spring Break Ride Closures Across Parks

Overview

• Several attractions are down or dated for short shutdowns in April, including Yoshi’s Adventure from April 21–23, Me Ship, The Olive from April 19–25, Pteranodon Flyers through mid-May, and Jurassic Park River Adventure through mid-November.
• With two Jurassic Park–area rides out at Islands of Adventure, crowds are funneling to what remains open, which is pushing longer waits onto nearby headliners like VelociCoaster.
• Families lose a key break spot during the Me Ship, The Olive closure, which can mean more time in queues and fewer low-stress options for younger kids.
• Finnegan’s Bar & Grill at Universal Studios Florida has been closed since January and is listed out through Winter 2026, cutting a popular sit-down dining choice during peak mealtimes.
• More downtime is already scheduled, with Mine‑Cart Madness set for May 3 and MEN IN BLACK Alien Attack set to close June 1–16, which reflects Universal’s move into a regular maintenance cycle after recent expansions.
