So what’s on the way? The Universal Legacy Store will be returning in late April. There, you’ll be able to buy some fun retro merchandise plus get some photo ops inspired by classic Universal Studios Florida attractions and Universal movies like E.T., Jaws, Back to the Future, and Universal Monsters. To make way for the Universal Legacy Store, the Universal Epic Universe Preview Center will be closing on April 13th to make way for the NEW shop.

However, you’ll have to wait a bit longer for this spot to open its doors: it’s not expected to be ready until 2027.
