In a dazzling display of innovation and creativity, two iconic UK locations were transformed into magical realms over two evenings in May. Through an awe-inspiring projection show, Battersea Power Station in London and Edinburgh Castle in Scotland became canvases for the celebration of Universal Orlando Resort's latest addition, the Epic Universe theme park. The grand opening took place on May 22nd, marking the start of a new era in theme park entertainment.
These projections presented viewers with a journey through five immersive worlds featured at the park. From the enchanting Wizarding World of Harry Potter to the futuristic Super Nintendo World, each transition was designed to captivate audiences and create a memorable experience. Attendees not only witnessed this spectacle but also had the opportunity to win an exclusive seven-night trip to Universal Orlando Resort, complete with access to all four parks. British Airways Holidays played a pivotal role as the official launch partner, offering Club World cabin flights for the lucky winner.
The event was more than just a visual feast; it symbolized the potential of imagination and technology to transport people into extraordinary worlds. As Alison Montague, Vice President International Sales & Marketing EMEA, expressed during the London launch, these projections provided a sneak peek into what promises to be one of the most ambitious theme parks ever created. With free admission to the event and various interactive experiences available, the excitement surrounding Epic Universe continues to grow. This marks yet another step towards bringing the magic of Universal Studios closer to fans worldwide, including plans for a future UK theme park.
