Construction Walls Rise at Epic Universe, Marking Start of Next Expansion Work

Public permits plus on-site walls indicate construction tied to a 150,000-square-foot project moving from planning to groundwork.

Overview

  • Sections of Celestial Park are now behind construction walls, with dirt leveling observed near SUPER NINTENDO WORLD and along an internal expansion pad.
  • A county permit filed for 1001 Epic Blvd references site utilities and foundation work for roughly 150,000 square feet with an estimated completion date of May 7, 2026.
  • Aerial imagery shared in mid-December by @bioreconstruct documented active groundwork, and new photos and guest reports on January 6 show walls and site activity inside the hub.
  • The precise use of the project has not been announced, though its location suggests work on an internal expansion zone rather than a previously rumored land.
  • Universal filed a December 2025 trademark for ‘Universal Celestial Goodnight,’ signaling possible nighttime entertainment development, as leaders have said future additions were already being planned.
