Universal Studios Tours – Park Information

If you are planning a trip to Universal Studios Tours,

you need to know specific information about the park

before you arrive. If you have special needs, you may

need more information than usual, and you should

contact Guest Services and inform them of your

special needs prior to your arrival.

You may purchase tickets in advance either online,

or over the telephone. Tickets can also be purchased

at Ticket Master Outlets and through travel agents.

You may also purchase tickets at the gate. General

one day admission costs $55, and those under forty

eight inches tall are charged $45. Children under

three are admitted free of charge. VIP Studio

Passes are available on a limited basis, and are

not available for children under the age of five. The

cost for VIP Studio Passes is $149 per person.

Annual tickets are also available, at a discounted

rate.

Universal Studios Hollywood is located in Los

Angeles, California, at 100 Universal City Plaza. This

is easily found right off of Highway 101, which is often

called the Hollywood Freeway. The park is about

ten minutes from the Los Angeles downtown area.

Only paid parking is available. It costs $10 for cars

and $11 for recreational vehicles. You can also get

preferred parking, which is closer to the entrance

for $17. Free parking is not available on the Universal

Studio grounds.

Realistically, it takes a full day to see all of the

attractions in the park. However, if you don’t have a

full day to spend at Universal Studios Tours, you

should purchase the VIP pass, which will allow you

to move to the front of the line for all rides and

attractions. This cuts down wait times in lines

significantly, and allows you to see all of the

attractions much faster.

Don’t allow the rain to ruin your parade! The park

remains open even when it rains, but if severe

weather is an issue, many shows may be cancelled

or relocated. In the event that the park must close

due to whether, a rain check will be issued. A

Universal Studio rain check will be issued if over 1/8

of an inch of rain falls before 2pm, and it is good for

thirty days.

Again, if you have special needs that may need

special accommodations, please contact Guest

Services by telephone prior to your visit. Some

accommodations can take up to two weeks to

arrange, so the sooner you contact Universal

Studios Tours with your special needs request,

the better the staff will be able to serve you.
