Celebrate a Year of Universal’s Epic Universe Park With New Merch [Exclusive]

One year ago, Universal Epic Universe opened its gates for the first time in Orlando, Florida. Now, to celebrate its birthday, the park is offering a bevy of exclusive collectibles. Collider is proud to exclusively present a preview of the wares that will be on offer starting this week.

The park’s central area, Celestial Park, is offering Lug bags and coinpurses of park mascot Captain Cacao, as well as a vinyl album of the park’s soundtrack. Fans of the eerie Dark Universe can festoon themselves with themed temporary tattoos and tote their gear in a Frankenstein Manor bag from Loungefly. Super Nintendo World‘s collection is inspired by the Mount Beanpole level of Super Mario 3D World; it includes apparel, a themed tumbler, and a gold “power up” wristwatch. Inhabitants of the Isle of Berk can pick up an adorable Toothless Loungefly bag and the park’s soundtrack on vinyl. And, just in time for HBO’s new Harry Potter series, devotees of the Ministry of Magic can choose from two new series of collector wands; a line of glass wands inspired by Wizarding World characters, and interactive wands with illuminated spell effects and haptic responses activated by locations in the park. These items and more will be available today on-location at Epic Universe, and on ShopUniversal.com tomorrow.

What Is Universal Epic Universe?

Construction on Epic Universe began in 2019 in Orlando, the theme park hub of Florida. The park consists of five separate areas, all themed with a different franchise. The hub that connects them all is Celestial Park, an astrology-themed area that offers gateways to the other areas. Dark Universe celebrates Universal’s rich tradition of horror, which stretches back to the Universal Monsters movies of the 1930s and 1940s. The Isle of Berk sends visitors to the medieval fantasy world of How to Train Your Dragon. Super Nintendo World takes guests into the virtual world of Mario, Donkey Kong, and all their video game pals. Finally, The Ministry of Magic is one of a trio of Wizarding World of Harry Potter areas in Universal’s trio of Orlando parks.

Epic Universe is one of three parks that comprise Universal Orlando. It also includes Universal’s Islands of Adventure, which features areas themed to Marvel, Dr. Seuss, King Kong, and Jurassic Park, and Universal Studios Florida, which includes attractions themed around Universal’s bevy of TV and movie franchises.

Epic Universe’s one-year anniversary merchandise will be available to order on ShopUniversal.com starting tomorrow, May 22. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
