Universal Orlando has undergone significant changes over the years, but do you know who currently owns it? Initially, it opened in 1990 as Universal Studios Florida, a joint venture between MCA Universal (now NBCUniversal) and The Blackstone Group. However, things took a turn when, in 2011, NBCUniversal acquired Blackstone's 50% stake, making it the sole owner. This transition allowed NBCUniversal to heavily invest in the resort, leading to expansions like The Wizarding World of Harry Potter and Epic Universe. Now fully owned by NBCUniversal, a subsidiary of Comcast, Universal Orlando continues to grow and compete with Disney. So, next time you’re enjoying Hogsmeade's Butterbeer, remember who holds the reins!
