Universal now plans to reopen Volcano Bay on or before April 1, 2027, following its maintenance closure beginning October 26, 2026. The updated official park-hours notice extends the planned reopening boundary from the previously listed March 24. Universal says the dates are subject to change.
What the planned Volcano Bay reopening date means
April 1 is the latest date in the current plan, rather than a guaranteed opening day. The park could reopen earlier, and the schedule can change again. Some official pages still show March 24, so use the updated park-hours notice when checking the closure; our Volcano Bay visitor guide covers the water park itself.
