Exploring Universal Orlando’s Latest Additions: ButterBeer Popsicles, Epic Summer Plans, and More!
Universal Orlando Resort has been making headlines lately with all of the exciting announcements and updates coming to the theme park this summer. From the highly anticipated opening of Super Nintendo World to a brand new nighttime entertainment show at Universal Studios Lagoon, there is so much to look forward to. And what better way to kick off the summer season than with a delicious ButterBeer popsicle and some mouth-watering grub at NBC Sports Grill & Brew?
Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth: ButterBeer Popsicle Delight
Let’s start with the sweet stuff. Recently, Universal unveiled their latest treat – the ButterBeer popsicle. Located inside Diagon Alley, this chilly concoction is a must-try for any Harry Potter fan. It’s the perfect way to cool off and indulge in your favorite wizarding world beverage. And if you’re worried about it selling out, fear not—it’s here to stay for the foreseeable future.
I recently had the pleasure of trying the new ButterBeer popsicle at The Hopping Pot in this park, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations. As a fan of all things ButterBeer, I was thrilled to see Universal expanding their ButterBeer offerings, and this popsicle did not disappoint.
The flavor of the butterscotch in the popsicle was rich and authentic, making it even more enjoyable than the original ButterBeer drink. The creamy texture and refreshing taste made it a perfect treat for the hot and humid weather typical of Central Florida.
I believe this new ButterBeer popsicle will be a hit with visitors of all ages. It’s a delightful treat that can bring joy to anyone, whether they’re a child or an adult. The attention to detail in capturing the essence of ButterBeer in popsicle form is commendable.
While I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, I would like to offer a suggestion for improvement. It would be beneficial for Universal to consider offering more unique flavors or variations of the ButterBeer popsicle to cater to different preferences. This could enhance the overall experience for guests and provide them with even more options to enjoy.
I applaud Universal for their creativity and innovation in expanding their ButterBeer offerings. The ButterBeer popsicle is a must-try for anyone visiting Universal Orlando, and I look forward to seeing what other delicious treats they come up with in the future. Keep up the great work!
Epic Summer Plans Unveiled: Cinesational Nighttime Show
But that’s not all that Universal has in store for us this summer. The park has officially announced their “Epic Summer Plans,” which include a new nighttime show at Universal Studios Lagoon. Titled “Cinesational A SYMPHONIC SPECTACULAR” this show will feature a dazzling display of lights, music, and pyrotechnics, showcasing some of your favorite characters and attractions from across the park. From Harry Potter and Jurassic World to Back to the Future and Transformers, this show promises to be a hit for guests of all ages.
CityWalk Transformations: Cinnabon to ButterBeer Bar & More
But it’s not just about the shows; Universal is also bringing some exciting changes to CityWalk. The beloved Cinnabon store has closed its doors, but fear not—it will be making a comeback in the form of a butterbeer bar. And right next door, Quiet Flight Surf Shop is being transformed into a Super Nintendo World store. So, not only will you be able to satisfy your sweet tooth with a delicious cinnamon roll, but you can also stock up on all of your favorite Nintendo merchandise.
Sneak Peek: Epic Universe Preview Center
Speaking of changes, the former Universal Legacy store is undergoing a huge transformation as well. Set to open this summer, the store will be transformed into the “Epic Universe Preview Center.” This exciting addition will give guests a sneak peek at what’s to come at Universal Orlando’s fourth theme park, set to open sometime in the fall. While we wait for more details on the new park, this preview center will serve as a hub of excitement for fans and provide a glimpse into the future of Universal Orlando.
Magical Touches and Furry Friends: Universal Studios Lagoon
As we make our way into the park, we can’t help but notice the finishing touches on the Illumination sign at Minion Mayhem. The bold and bright colors, featuring beloved characters from Illumination films like The Secret Life of Pets and Sing, add a touch of whimsy to this area. And speaking of The Secret Life of Pets, Universal is adding some character to this area in the form of some furry friends. Keep an eye out for Max and Snowball as they make appearances in the windows above the street.
Before we head off to grab a bite to eat, let’s check out what’s happening on the Universal Studios Lagoon. The new nighttime show, “Cinesational A SYMPHONIC SPECTACULAR,” promises to be a spectacular showcase of some of our favorite characters and attractions from across the park. With 28 different properties included in this show, there is sure to be something for everyone. And with the warm summer nights approaching, this show is the perfect way to end your day at Universal.
