Theme Park Tickets

Question

We will only be in Orlando for 3 nights, we would just like to go to Universal Studios and Universal Epic. Are we able to purchase just 1 day tickets for these parks? All I can see is 7 or 14 day tickets.

Thanks VTB

Answer

Yes, you can purchase 1-day tickets for Universal Orlando Resort, which includes both Universal Studios Florida and Universal’s Islands of Adventure (often referred to collectively as “Universal Epic”). There are a few ticket options depending on what you want to do:

1-Park/1-Day Ticket: Allows entry to either Universal Studios Florida or Islands of Adventure for one day. Ideal if you only want to experience one park.
Park-to-Park Ticket (1-Day): Allows you to visit both Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure on the same day. This is required if you want to ride the Hogwarts Express, which connects the two parks.

Some important considerations:

Tickets are typically sold online through the official Universal Orlando website or authorized resellers. While multi-day tickets are prominently displayed, 1-day tickets are still available, but may be under “Single Day Tickets” or “1-Day Park-to-Park Tickets” sections.
Prices vary depending on the day you visit due to date-based pricing. Weekends and peak seasons are more expensive than weekdays.
Buying in advance is recommended to secure your preferred date and to avoid long lines at the gate.

In short, for a short 3-night stay, a 1-day Park-to-Park ticket is usually the best option if you want to experience both Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure in a single day.
