History of Universal Orlando

Universal Orlando Resort was opened on June 7, 1990, as a single theme park, Universal Studios Florida.
The park was designed to showcase the world of movies and television, with attractions based on popular films and behind-the-scenes experiences.
In 1999, Universal's Islands of Adventure was added, featuring themed islands like Jurassic Park and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
The resort has since expanded to include Universal CityWalk, Universal's Volcano Bay, and several on-site hotels.

Expansion and Acquisitions

In 2010, Universal Orlando acquired the rights to the Harry Potter franchise, leading to the creation of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
The resort has continued to grow, with new attractions and lands added regularly, including the introduction of Universal's Epic Universe, a new theme park, in the near future.
