Hey Disney Vacationers! Universal Orlando just dropped some fresh details about Epic Universe inside the official app, and if you’re planning to visit the new park, this update is for you. The app now shows the official parking lot names for Epic Universe, and knowing them ahead of time will save you time and hassle when you pull in for a day of adventure. Let’s take a look at the Epic Universe parking lot names.

Epic Universe Parking Lot Names
In the “Parking Reminder” section of the Universal Orlando app, five official parking lot names are now listed:
- Explorer
- Monster
- Viking
- Gamer
- Hero
Each section has a distinct theme that fits right in with Epic Universe’s larger-than-life experience. Whether you’re a fan of mythical warriors, classic movie monsters, or video games, there’s a parking spot that fits your vibe.
Team Member Previews and Guest Access
Epic Universe is currently in the preview stage, with Universal Orlando Team Members getting the first look. These previews started with exclusive Team Member-only access and will soon expand to Team Member Family previews, running from March 17 to March 25 and March 29 to March 31.
Team Members receive four tickets—one for themselves and three for family members. Universal has defined “family members closest to you” with specific guidelines to clarify who can attend. Like the earlier Team Member previews, a strict no-photo policy is in place to keep things under wraps before the official grand opening.
What About Public Previews?
With Team Member Family previews wrapping up by the end of March, guest previews could be next. Universal has not announced any official soft openings, but if history is any indicator, we could see guest previews in the weeks leading up to the May 22 grand opening. Stay tuned for updates because once those previews open to the public, you’ll want to be among the first to step inside Epic Universe.
Final Thoughts
The addition of parking lot names in the app is a small but important detail as Universal preps for the biggest theme park debut of the year. Whether you’re parking in Explorer, Monster, Viking, Gamer, or Hero, Epic Universe is shaping up to be an experience like no other. Keep an eye on the app and Universal’s official channels for any further updates on parking, soft openings, and more sneak peeks before the big day on May 22.
