ORLANDO, FL — Starting July 7, 2026, Universal Epic Universe will officially unveil its first nighttime spectacular, Universal Celestial Goodnight. Staged nightly in the park’s central hub, Celestial Park, the production serves as the definitive closing experience for the new park, utilizing the entire landscape rather than a fixed stage to deliver an immersive fireworks and aquatic display.
What to Expect at Celestial Park
Universal’s creative team has designed this show to integrate seamlessly with the park’s four themed worlds. By treating the architecture of Celestial Park as the stage, the performance creates a 360-degree environment for guests as they exit the park.
Production & Technical Specs:
- Venue: Celestial Park (Anchored by Apollo and Luna statues)
- Lighting Matrix: Nearly 600 synchronized, high-intensity lighting fixtures
- Water Features: 350+ large-scale, programmable fountains
- LED Integration: Roughly 7 million LED lights embedded throughout the land
- Finale: High-altitude pyrotechnics synchronized to an original musical score
Planning Your Visit
While the park currently lists operating hours of 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. for the debut, guests should prepare for crowds as excitement builds for this first-of-its-kind show. To maximize your day before the finale, we recommend tracking real-time wait times for Epic Universe attractions throughout the day to ensure you don’t miss any major rides before the park closes.
The performance is included with standard park admission and does not require a separate reservation or ticket.
